Description

I have a basic lighttpd install on my laptop for web development. If I use powertop (http://www.linuxpowertop.org/) I see that lighttpd is waking up frequently, and indeed server.c:1268 calls poll with a one second timeout.

How, I'm no master of the lighttpd source, but does this need to timeout at all? Passing -1 would mean that it could wait forever until something happens, which is ideal, but if that isn't possible could the timeout be increased?

the 1 second wakeup is important to update statistics, cleanup zombies, ... and do other checks which are not related to a connection.
