You can assume it to be zero unless you have a lot of descriptors (50 is
probably not enough) and a lot of wakeups (if you wake up once every 10
ms, even spending 0.1 ms to process the 50 descriptors would be 1%).

If it turns out to be a problem, you can always "git revert", I doubt
this part of the code has churn.
