Anyways, I did it, and here are the results with everything from current
CPAN (the POE::Loop::EV test still hangs, so not included):

   name sockets create request 
     EV      16  14.75    4.56 
   Perl      16  17.61   10.82 
    POE      16 173.87  155.32 XS::Loop::Poll
    POE      16 177.62  153.15 XS::Loop::EPoll
    POE      16 200.87  155.84 Loop::Event
    POE      16 175.74  153.69 Loop::Select


   name sockets create request 
     EV   20000  71.00    8.27 
   Perl   20000  75.64   32.58 
    POE   20000 278.48 5387.89 XS::Loop::Poll  
    POE   20000 275.60 5344.13 XS::Loop::EPoll 
    POE   20000 300.43 5999.13 Loop::Event     
    POE   20000 277.34 5366.55 Loop::Select

I had POE POE::XS::Loop::EPoll POE::XS::Loop::Poll POE::XS::Queue::Array
POE::Loop::Event POE::Loop::EV installed, and I assume
POE::XS::Queue::Array is picked up automatically.

I verified that EPoll is indeed being used, so the POE backend seems to be
of little relevance.

Just for fun, here are results after deleting POE::XS::Queue::Array, so
seems it indeed has a speedup effect on watcher creation:

    POE      16 223.99  174.42 
    POE      16 187.87  172.68
