Of course that would mean establishing which was the best available which, as we've seen this week, may not be easy. I believe it's: kqueue on FreeBSD (for recent-enough versions thereof), otherwise epoll where available and nonbuggy, otherwise poll ditto, otherwise select

It would be an improvement if it would just pick some implementation that worked, even if it weren't strictly the best.
