Right.  The only other thing I can come up with there is that the web
pages are modifying the shared memory, which wasn't true share, but copy
on write.  Under most circumstances I've seen, this would primarily only
happen to a significant degree when the embperl pages themselves change,
but it depends a great deal on what your pages do.

If it's not that, then I am out of ideas.

I hope that helps,
Ed
