[Asterisk-Dev] where is the thread which monitors all the idle channels?

[Matteo Piazza]

But exist or not a thread tha monitors all the idle channels? (Not in 
channel driver but in Asterisk architecture).
I not understand if a singol thread manages only a single channel, or a 
singol thread manages more than one channels.
