My main objections to nuking threaded have been solved, namely: * worker loosing connections when the queue fills up, and * worker screwing up a graceful restart. I've heard that the other scalable web server on OS/390 (Lotus Domino Go) has gone back to a model more like threaded. IIRC this has something to do with easily keeping processor affinity between the accept thread and the worker when there's a crypto coprocessor. But we have a long way to go before this becomes a concern for Apache. So +1 on removing threaded. Greg
