OpenJDK 6/7 kqueue based NIO provider

[Pieter de Goeje]

Hi,

I'm looking for a kqueue based implementation of java.nio.Selector.

If it doesn't exit yet, I'll have to create it myself. I've already looked at 
the code for the EPoll provider and it doesn't seem too hard to create a 
kqueue based one. I will have to figure out how to interface with native 
libraries though.

The reason is obviously performance. I created a simple nio based echo server 
and a kqueue client in C, which creates about 50K simultaneous connections. 
Java is completely CPU bound and can only reply to about 100 connections per 
second due to immense poll(2) overhead, and it takes ages for all 50K 
connections to be accepted by the server.

Input welcome :-)
