That's a great improvement in time.

I think (per your decision 1) it would be good to change it to a unix-domain 
socket, for the sake of a bit more security, and better reusability as a 
per-user thing.

Per http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#VARRUNRUNTIMEVARIABLEDATA

which will require sysadmins making a directory under there that's writable by 
this process.  That can be in the config file.  You should just need 
socket.bind((AF_UNIX, path)).  Then just chmod the socket.

Having a config option to turn this on is great.  We could make it active only 
on staging at first and see the effect.

481     +        while not self._should_terminate.isSet():
482     +            try:
483     +                conn, client_addr = self._server_socket.accept()
484     +            except self._socket_timeout:
485     +                pass # run shutdown and children checks
486     +            except self._socket_error, e:
487     +                if e.args[0] == errno.EINTR:
488     +                    pass # run shutdown and children checks
489     +                elif e.args[0] != errno.EBADF:
490     +                    # We can get EBADF here while we are shutting down
491     +                    # So we just ignore it for now
492     +                    pass

It seems like this might spin if the server socket's closed and there are no 
dead children.


+    fifos on the filesystem, and start running the requseted command. The


typo

We should do some kind of plan or review with LOSAs on how to deploy and 
support this.  We should configure it to log to a file, and for that to be 
synced to devpad.  Putting the pid in the log file would be nice.
