Yes, the performance difference is only when collecting stats.

I don't think I've ever seen NLMSG_ERROR before.  Are you running
this as the same user that originally bound the listener (the user
of the Unicorn master process)?

Are you bound to 0.0.0.0:9000 and not 127.0.0.1:9000?  Use
0.0.0.0:9000 if you're bound to that (I had another user on the
raindrops mailing list with that problem).
