Summary: perl interface to libev, a high performance full-featured event loop

Description: 

This module provides an interface to libev
(<http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev.html>). While the documentation
below is comprehensive, one might also consult the documentation of
libev itself (<http://pod.tst.eu/http://cvs.schmorp.de/libev/ev.pod> or
perldoc EV::libev) for more subtle details on watcher semantics or some
discussion on the available backends, or how to force a specific backend
with "LIBEV_FLAGS", or just about in any case because it has much more
detailed information.

This module is very fast and scalable. It is actually so fast that you
can use it through the AnyEvent module, stay portable to other event
loops (if you don't rely on any watcher types not available through it)
and still be faster than with any other event loop currently supported in
Perl.
