Equally respectfully, if you=92re comparing libevent and libdispatch at = all, then you=92re only getting about 10% of what libdispatch actually = is. The event handling piece is really just a small fraction of it. = For a really nice overview written by someone *not* from Apple, I = recommend: http://arstechnica.com/apple/2009/08/mac-os-x-10-6/12/ Libdispatch is also highly portable. I don=92t think there=92s an OS = flavor it *hasn=92t* been ported to at this point. - Jordan
