No it is not. We're using 2.2.0-pre6 with the kernel fdset enlarged to 10240
fds. The problem is that the JVM is using select(2), which uses arrays whose
sizes are fixed at compile time. poll(2) solves that problem, so that is why
we are asking for a version of the JVM that uses it.
Obviously if we recompile the JVM with a libc that uses a larger fd_set, it
should work as well. But since we don't have the source code, this isn't
really possible.
