Subject: Memory usage enhancement in unicorn 6.1?

Hi,

After bumping unicorn from 6.0 to 6.1,
I observed it reduced memory usage much.

In production, the memory usage has been almost halved! :0
Startup memory usage is almost the same, but after a few minutes,
there is a big difference in the memory usage between v6.0 and v6.1.

I looked into the cause of this and I found using epoll reduces memory usage.

Does anyone observe the same enhancement?
Or does anyone have an idea why it happened?

Thanks,
Toshi
