In this section the complexities of (many of) the algorithms used inside libev will be explained. For complexity discussions about backends see the documentation for ev_default_init.

All of the following are about amortised time: If an array needs to be +extended, libev needs to realloc and move the whole array, but this +happens asymptotically never with higher number of elements, so O(1) might +mean it might do a lengthy realloc operation in rare cases, but on average +it is much faster and asymptotically approaches constant time.

Starting and stopping timer/periodic watchers: O(log skipped_other_timers)

Starting io/check/prepare/idle/signal/child watchers: O(1)

These just add the watcher into an array or at the head of a list. If -the array needs to be extended libev needs to realloc and move the whole -array, but this happen asymptotically less and less with more watchers, -thus amortised O(1).
