Richard Oudkerk added the comment:

Is this actually a problem?

If events are arranged in a queue and epoll_wait() just removes the oldest 
events (up to maxevents) from that queue then there would be no problem with 
using a small value for maxevents.

I don't *know* if that is the case, but I would consider epoll to be broken if 
it does not do something similar.
