zmqpp is about 5%, give or take, slower than the c native bindings
last time I checked. I don't know how this compares to cppzmq but I'd
imagine it's slower as cppzmq is a very lightweight wrapper over the
native bindings and probably runs without much loss of performance at
all.

So far zmqpp only gets update when someone asks for a feature or there
is something else I need it to do for work, but if there is anything
you need just let me know. I doubt there is any plan to merge the two
as bindings have, for the most part, been kept separate from zmq core.
