Thanks for documenting the numbers.
I prefer we use a hash or case statement. Both allow more
optimization in the YARV VM of CRuby (opt_aref and
opt_case_dispatch in insns.def). case _might_ be a little
faster if there's no constant lookup overhead, but
a microbench or dumping the bytecode will be necessary
to be sure :)
A hash or a case can also help portability-wise in case
we hit a system where these numbers are non-sequential;
or if we forgot something.

We can probably split everything inside this if to a new
method, this avoid penalizing people who don't use this feature.
Using check_client_connection will already have a high cost,
since it requires at least one extra syscall.

...because defined? only needs to be checked once for the
lifetime of the process; we can define different methods
at load time to avoid the check for each and every request.

Right, no need to socket.close, here; handle_error does it.

Since we don't print out the backtrace in handle_error, we
can raise without a backtrace to avoid excess garbage.

Yep, we need to account for the UNIX socket case. I forget if
kgio even makes them different...
Anyways I won't be online much for a few days, and it's the
weekend, so no rush :)
Thanks.
