With 2k connections the overhead of select() is going to start to be a problem. You would notice the system time going up. -threaded may help with this, because it calls select() less often.

we should be using /dev/poll on systems that support it.

And kqueue for systems that support that. Much, much more efficient than select. -- Lennart
