From the JDK-1.5.0_10 release notes at

"Support for epoll ...
Yes, epoll is nice. I do not have any benchmarks for it though.
SUN 1.6.0 jvm uses epoll as the default selector.
I did a few trivial benchmarks for 1.5 vs 1.6, but that is soo much
more than epoll.
I did also find a bug in the epoll selector. There are patches
that fixes it and it will probably be good in 1.6.0_01 and hopefully
also 1.5.0_11.

I am not sure if this bug will bite you or not, but a http
server or a http clients both sounds like something that will do socket
_and_ file io at the same time, so be careful about epoll until the
next bugfix release.
