On a related note, perhaps the needforspeed folks should look into supporting kqueue on systems where it's available? That's a really fast BSD-originated API to replace select/poll. (It's fast due to the way the API is designed.)

There is, in fact, an implementation of kqueue for Python already available. I have not used it myself, but it is available here:

maybe the needforspeed people could take a look at this?
