Sorry didn't answer you here... There definitely are extra instructions and function calls involved with using apr_poll() in this case. I don't know the exact number but I could find out. The affects of a few dozen extra instructions would be insignificant in overall server performance, but you can say that about any place in the server. Adding function call overhead adds up. In this case, is easy to just avoid the extra calls altogether with no significant loss in code readability. Bill
