Got the embedded figured out, had to enable the option, silly me.

19511 defang     9   0 25800  25M 16632 S     0.0 10.0   0:00 mimedefang
19403 defang     9   0 25796  25M 16640 S     0.0 10.0   0:01 mimedefang

So it looks like using the multiplexor increase the amount of shared
memory from 4.7 megs to 16.6 megs.
So your memory utilization for server sizes would be:

2.39
25M first slave +9M per additional slave.

2.38
25M first slave +20M per additional slave.

So you see signifigant memory savings event with the low number of slaves.
Even with high numbers you would see, such as 10 slaves.

2.39
25M+(9*10)= 115M
2.38
25M+(20*10)= 225M

So it uses less then half the memory that 2.38 does.
Awesome!
