Then I think there will be plan to change default state of INPUT nodes from POLLING to INTERRUPTIBLE. I think it is required to enable this feature at some point.

The way I see it all clib_file_xx() operations are on main core. It will be helpful if any scenario can be explained where presence of unix-epoll-input() on worker core solves the purpose Thanks, Nitin -- Damjan
