Sigh... select() seems to be about 5-6x slower than HAVE_NANOSLEEP on my
Linux 2.6 system with current HEAD. Not sure why I didn't see such a
drastic difference before, but it's quite noticable on test008 and
test039. Perhaps the added Bind load pushed it over a threshold...
Okay, I've committed a basic detection code for
REPLACE_SCHED_YIELD as well as updated replacement
code. Currently uses select(2), but can be switched
to nanosleep(2).
I've only tested on FreeBSD4 where this is a no-op.
Now pushing to a Linux box for real testing.
nanosleep(2) should work on Solaris (at least 8, 9 and 10) as well.
