There are many POE XS modules, which two did you use?

No, it's positively physically impossible, simply because POE has to do
so much more than EV, in addition to what EV does :) But the last time
I benchmarked, even with XS, POE was so far off that I am sure there is
a lot to optimise (I mean, even a factor of ten wouldn't challenge most
other backends).

Maybe what you got *is* EV because the XS module or POE didn't load (try
PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE=1 and run the benchmark to see which event model it
choses).

And last not least you modified runbench2 - how exactly?

Could you post the benchmark table as a table? As it is now it's very hard
to read.
