The idea behind going all the way down to epoll is to reduce the memory footprint by around 30% otherwise, with every goroutine stack consuming 4-8KB, it's not feasible to go with 1goroutine-1websocket approach

That's what, 8GB of ram? A lot for a laptop... but not too much for a server.

30% extra RAM is a very noticeable server expense.
