Libevent is a lightweight open source high-performance I/O framework written in C language and supports a variety of I/O functions. Road multiplexing technology: epoll, poll, dev/poll, select and kqueue, etc.; supports events such as I/O, timers and signals; registers event priorities. PHP provides corresponding extensions libevent and Event.
Compared with libevent ext, event ext has better performance and a more comprehensive API, which allows us to use Libevent more friendly.
