I believe the overriding constraints are the fork semantics, but yes condition variables are another requirement. However, the worker MPM only uses the APR calls for all locks/threads/condition variables, so if it's supported in APR it'll work everywhere. OTOH, I'm -0 for replacing prefork with worker on any platform until we discuss the tradeoffs a little more. I've read no statistical distributions of the ways apache is applied, which is what I'd need to make an informed decision on what MPM with what parameters would be optimal. I still seem to think that prefork will be better in the general case, but I could be convinced otherwise. -aaron
