As long as you are benchmarking things, try applying my C module
replacement for medusa.asyncore.poll():

http://dustman.net/andy/python/asyncore

Some anecodotal evidence: This code was installed on a site running Apache
+ FastCGI + Squishdot, which was very heavily loaded, and giving up a lot
of broken pipe errors (probably due to FastCGI). The load that the site
was able to handle (simultaneous connections) increased by 30-60%. There
were still broken pipe problems, but subsequent upgrades to Apache and
the FastCGI module got rid of all or most of them. Since it was not a
controlled test, I wouldn't consider this a benchmark. But since you seem
to be set up for doing them... :)
