The man pages say exactly:
If timeout is a non-nil pointer, it specifies a maximum interval to wait
for the selection to complete.
Which doesn't say that it will sleep no more than this. It says that
it will wait no longer than this for the selection to complete. It
doesn't guarantee anything, imho. It doesn't guarnatee that you will
be scheduled at any given time.
Besides, POSIX's definition of select clearly states what I said.
