Hi Aaron,

Another check with do-tcp: no, so that the evport system calls do not
have to lock that file descriptor to inspect if events happened on the
TCP fd.

evport, forked
special, no-tcp :            10200  18552  20226  27161
again                                      23646  27149
and again                                  19350  27792

The 3-core output is very bouncy. The four-core throughput is more stable.

So, that removes another lock, and speeds up a bit more :-)

Best regards,
   Wouter
