-----------------------------------------+---------------------------------
 When we developed the scalable I/O manager (i.e. the first version that
 used epoll) we wrote a bunch of benchmarks that were never moved to the
 GHC tree or integrated into the make system:

     https://github.com/tibbe/event/tree/master/benchmarks

 It would be nice to move this into the GHC tree to catch future
 regressions and use them when trying to make improvements.
