How to have a sub process or a fork ?

buongiorno a tutti, [sorry, but I'm currently listening Le Nozze di Figaro !]

I have a little question :

( I'm using mod_perl 1.23, scripts under Apache::Registry)

I have a script updating a db from parm given by the client, and building a HTML page.

The process of update is fast enough, but the building is a litlle too long, too many updates arriving.

I cannot stopping the frequency of updates (human !), so my question ;

Is it possible to have another process / script, allways running, which my script can talk ?

(I do not want to use the crontab)

Is a fork a good idea ?

Is a handler necessary here ? (frighten me, I'm just a beginner here)

thanks,

kktos

ps: thanks for your answers of my previous questions q:-D
