Abstract: UNIX applications not wishing to block when doing I/O often use the select() system call, to wait for events on multiple file descriptors. The select() mechanism works well for small-scale applications, but scales poorly as the number of file descriptors increases. Many modern applications, such as Internet servers, use hundreds or thousands of file descriptors, and suffer greatly from the poor scalability of select(). Previous work has shown that while the traditional implementation of select... (Update)
