Well, you won't get much of a speed improvement yet. I will write a
devpoll module in the next couple days whilst I have access to a solaris
7 box (which means you'll be able to use it with the devpoll patches
for linux which I haven't tried yet..)

Commloops hasn't barfed on me under reasonable (100-150 req/sec) load,
and you won't see much of a speed improvement but the good thing about
the kqueue() implementation is that load/performance should be a little
(heh) more linear than with poll()/select(), which SHOULD mean an CPU
speedups should result in a faster request rate.

The beginnings of this are in the squidng tree. I'm probably going to
merge this with squidng again in a couple weeks once I've done some more
2.4 tidyups and I've actually made the storage manager a little more
efficient.
