Mayhaps my statement was too wide of a net catching the kernel team, beowulf, and other generally worthy folk, etc, as some of that is indeed cutting edge. Nevertheless I do find threading models generally more logically pleasant to work with. Forking processes, et al just seems rather very kludgy and archaic, like we're still running COBOL on VAXen or some such. :) But perhaps that's just my OO tastes. --min ______________________________________________________________________ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
