Ah, right. Thanks for pointing out that mistake.
I have fixed that.

P.S.
I measured the response of select().
The first time and second time response is measured.

Only the first time takes long response time because
the cached info is used in the second time. This patch
improves the response much. Also, caching info is very
effective.

First time, Second time
Without this patch:
19.427600 [msec], 0.113900 [msec]

With this patch:
3.344600 [msec], 0.115000 [msec]
