Under Solaris 7, when the number of idle sockets was decreased from 10,000 to 100, the time to check for active sockets with poll() decreased by a factor of only 6.5. Shouldn't it be more like 100? Sounds like Solaris' poll implementation is horribly broken for the most common case.
I would like to ask everyone interested so deeply in this to read up on /usr/include/sys/poll_impl.h from such a Solaris system to see what their optimization actually is before continuing this discussion any further, thanks :-)
