Thanks for the work, David. :)
Question, though, how will you keep a persistent, say, MySQL connection in
Perl, for the backend socketmap functionality? In a forking model, you still
cannot use the same $dbh object for each forked process, as DBI is not
reentrant (or can you? I'm starting to doubt now). At any rate, the new
socketmap is blistering fast!
