[issue18932] Optimize selectors.EpollSelector.modify()

[Giampaolo Rodola']

Giampaolo Rodola' added the comment:

Attached is a patch (for epoll only) which updates the SelectorKey. This introduces a considerable slowdown compared to my first patch:

no patch:    16.2 usec per loop
your patch:  12.4 usec per loop
my patch:    10.9 usec per loop
first patch: 3.07 usec per loop

The culprit is the new nameduple's _replace() call. It's a shame a single line adds such a great slowdown. I think it makes sense to investigate whether we can introduce a faster replace mechanism for namedtuple.
