Odi,
I think 10-15% performance penalty is considerable. Besides, on some
platforms, admittedly misconfigured or having poor JRE implementation,
the cost of having a channel selector per channel is simply prohibitive.

I am still of an opinion we gain absolutely nothing by using NIO for
API that is not specifically designed to make heavy use of non-blocking
IO with hundreds of channels managed by one channel selector.
