Should I use EV_WRITE event?

If I understand what you are trying to do in situation B correctly,
that callback function will be called each loop iteration.
Pretty much (while(socket_connected)):callback()

So B is a nono,
if the data to send back is limited A will be sufficient and quickest to
implement.
