OK, in that case, reducing TIMEOUT_USEC from 10000 to 5000 improves response time dramatically: the mean wait time after the select goes from 0.002 secs to 0.0004 secs. There's still an oddity though, a Ctrl-C sometimes takes a noticeable delay before being effective. I wonder if this has something to do with what was reported on linux 2.6.24 kernels (I'll give a try to the latest 2.6.25-rc). So for the moment, I'd recommend reducing TIMEOUT_USEC as well.
