[perf-discuss] can anybody explain the difference between select() and port_getn()

[Sophie Hu]

I know port_getn is more efficient that select() because when some event 
happens on the port, port_getn simply return it; while by using select(), when 
some event happens, select() tries to get the socket of this event, and then 
tries to find which bit is related to the socket, then mask that bit, and then 
return, is it correct? Can anybody explain more? thx
