They smirk at epoll but are happy with IOCP? That seems... unlikely to me.

I don't know, like I said, I'm not a developer myself, however I thought epoll was universally criticised for being poor.

I researched a little after I was told (while pushing linux) that things like epoll were why they would never use it.

I did manage to convince them to write their storage backend on FreeBSD because that uses kqueues and has ZFS.
