Any thoughts? Suggestions? I would also appreciate any advice on more
sophisticate ways to measure the performance impacts of a change like
this.

Yes, as Tom pointed out. Sorry, I misread the autoconf file. I've
gotten quite used to Darwin == BSD.
I've added a note to my todo list to look into the posix semaphore
performance on the Darwin side.

t the SysV semaphores use less memory (and no
fd's). Darwin can support about 85k SysV semaphores system-wide, so
it has no need for tuning in that respect, which is nice.

I don't have access to any Linux machines to test this.

This might make it easier to avoid the complexity of fitting the
