What's about firefox's thread model in network socket layer?

it seems that When open a new http connection, firefox will create one new
tcp socket in network module and clone a thread to polling it.

And, How firefox multiplex underlay tcp socket? Or it use thread per
socket, or use OS select/poll/epoll mechanism?

best regards
tom
