Is there even a kqueue-based Twisted reactor?

Yes... ish.  More detail here: <http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/1918>.

Hi Glyph,

first, thanks as always!

The pykqueue 1.3 and 2.0 referenced in that ticket seem to be no longer
maintained.

On the other hand, Python has built-in support for kqueue since Python 2.6
in the select module.

I have adjusted the Twisted kqreactor to select.kqueue and made a package:

https://github.com/oberstet/txkqreactor

I have tested that reactor successfully with Autobahn WebSockets on FreeBSD 8.2 (running as a VirtualBox x86 VM). When I'm home later, I can check out Mac.

Doing the Autobahn tests helped me finding the only non-canonical change required

https://github.com/oberstet/txkqreactor/commit/27302b4f643cd3967289ff11d811309a0b05f630

Is there any regression/test/stresstest I could run to verify the stuff actually works?

You can run the Twisted test suite:

   trial --reactor kqueue twisted

(assuming you've hooked up the name "kqueue" to your new version of the kqueue reactor).

This is what needs to work in order for the new reactor to be added to Twisted itself (ie, for us to resolve #1918).

The Autobahn WS tests do quite some stuff, but they do not test concurrency and
high connections numbers ..

Cheers,
Tobias
