SV: [Rt-devel] No multithreading?

[Matt Knopp]

Right, so I should get around to giving jesse my changes to make RT use
a perl based fcgi process manager rather then the standard one. Having
the fcgi process manager in perl has two main advantages: 

  1. Processes init a great deal faster because perl is only having to 
     suck in and compile all the modules once, then it forks sharing 
     that data w/ the child processes; viz-a-viz doing this N times, 
     where N is equal to the number of servers running. 

  2. Memory usage is a bit less offensive since common non-changing 
     bits will be available via the parent. See copy-on-write, etc.
