I think one part that is missing from this design is how you translate these "connection objects" between processes. This is not unsolvable, just an obstacle that may eat into performance. Some of the methods that you might use for this are: - unix domain sockets (named and anonymous both work here) - doors (* my prefered method, only available on solaris) I've also been working on an addition to APR that will do this in a cross-platform manner, called "spipe" (aka Stream Pipes). See some sample file-descriptor-passing code in the perchild MPM. -aaron
