+Ideally, you want to make a static binary, otherwise the dynamic
+linker pollutes your address space with shared libs right in the
+middle.
+
+Make sure your libevent has epoll (Linux) or kqueue (BSD) support.
+Using poll or select only is slow, and works for testing, but
+shouldn't be used for high-traffice memcache installations.
+
+To build libevent with epoll on Linux, you need:
+
+#define __NR_epoll_create               254
+#define __NR_epoll_ctl          255
+#define __NR_epoll_wait         256
+
+One okay (but not ideal) place to shove them is /usr/include/asm/unistd.h
+
+BSD users are luckier, and will get kqueue support by default.
