Evio is a Go networking framework built around a high-performance event loop (much like libuv or libevent) but tailored for Go, bypassing the standard net package to make direct epoll/kqueue syscalls on supported OSes for maximum throughput. The library is used where ultra-low latency and high packet rates matter (for example, proxy servers or real-time packet handling). It supports TCP, UDP, and UNIX sockets, multiple address binding, and built-in load balancing across event loops (loops can run single-threaded or multi-threaded). ...

EventMachine is an event-driven I/O and lightweight concurrency library for Ruby. It provides event-driven I/O using the Reactor pattern, much like JBoss Netty, Apache MINA, Python's Twisted, Node.js, libevent and libev. Extremely high scalability, performance and stability for the most demanding production environments. An API that eliminates the complexities of high-performance threaded network programming, allowing engineers to concentrate on their application logic. This unique combination makes EventMachine a premier choice for designers of critical networked applications, including Web servers and proxies, email and IM production systems, authentication/authorization processors, and many more. ...

Libevent is hosted at https://github.com/libevent/libevent . Go there instead of here. The libevent API provides a mechanism to execute a callback function when a specific event occurs on a file descriptor or after a timeout has been reached. It is meant to replace the asynchronous event loop found in event-driven network servers.
