I just posted the third article about my comet experiments, which covers
why I needed to patch libevent to open >1M connections:

Hi,
In order to open more than 2^16 connections (HTTP connections in my
case) *from* one machine, you need to use multiple local IPs, because
the maximum local port number is 65536.
evhttp_connection_set_local_address already exists and is suitable for
this.
The ephemeral port allocator, which is

I'm trying to use libevent for reading data from stdin, and my callback

bytes to stdin.
Here's the jist of it:
Main:
event_init();
event_set(&ev, 0 /*stdin*/, EV_READ | EV_PERSIST, read_stdin, NULL);
event_add(&ev
