select() too slow

[Pedro Inacio]

Hello,

according to the mailing list archives it seems that I'm not the only  
one reporting this problem, but I was unable to find any fix,  
workaround or even good explanation for the problem.
I've done one application that uses the select() function, with sets  
for reading and writing, with non-blocking sockets, and it works fine  
with good performance on all Unix systems.

Since I want to run the application on Windows also, I have ported it  
to run on Cygwin.
Everything is ok except the poor performance of the select()  
function. It is too dam slow.

I'm running the latest version of Cygwin.

There is any known issue? There is some work for a fix?

Anyone can help?


Thanks in advance,


Pedro Inacio
