Ah, I didn't know about POE_EVENT_LOO, I mean LOOP.

While possibly unrelated, the choice for the particular POE backend I used
in the benchmark was becasue it's the only one I could get working stable
(I would have preferred the EV backend, for semi-obvious reasons), i.e.
passing it#s own testsuite and actaulyl surviving the benchmark.

The existing runbench2 itself does that, btw.:

tst POE $a $b "-MEvent -MPOE=Loop::Event"

So *if* that worked (now I am no longer sure), one could try:

tst POE::XS $a $b "-MEvent -MPOE=XS::Loop::EPoll"

Yeah.

There are... other considerations than just raw speed
sometimes. Fortunately, you can always mix and match AnyEvent with POE
functionality if the latter should have a module you need.
