-libcurl version 7.7 or later (for older versions see below): You can do any

-intend to transfer more than one file, you are even encouraged to do
-so. libcurl will then attempt to re-use the same connection for the following
-transfers, thus making the operations faster, less CPU intense and using less
-network resources. Just note that you will have to use
-.I curl_easy_setopt
-between the invokes to set options for the following curl_easy_perform.

 You must never call this function simultaneously from two places using the
 same handle. Let the function return first before invoking it another time. If
 you want parallel transfers, you must use several curl handles.

-Before libcurl version 7.7: You are only allowed to call this function once

-curl_easy_cleanup and curl_easy_init again first.
