Very cool. Thanks for doing a no-scan implementation of /dev/poll! Two questions:
1) have you compared its performance against Vitaly Luban's signal-per-fd patch? Even though it's realtime-signal based, there's some hope for it being quite efficient. See http://www.luban.org/GPL/gpl.html and http://boudicca.tux.org/hypermail/linux-kernel/2001week20/1353.html
2) A little birdie told me that someone had gotten a freebsd box to handle something like half a million connections. I would like to see you extend the horizontal axis of your graph by a couple orders of magnitude :-)
Thanks, Dan
