Or to ask a different question, why continue to use select?  When I
originally did the patch for inetd, I was VERY surprised at how little
of the logic I had to change to make it use kqueue...

Part of the reason I never committed it was that I did most of my work
on 3.x at the time, and I had serious tcp connection rate issues with
4.x (-current) at the time, and people wanted benchmarks, but w/ 4.x,
I couldn't get more than a hundred connections per second, while my
3.x box could do thousands...
