That's the mojo app.

Not easily.

That's 404. But I think you are referring to:
...
use constant CHECK_CHILD_INTERVAL => $ENV{CHECK_CHILD_INTERVAL} || 0.01;

||= Mojo::IOLoop->recurring(CHECK_CHILD_INTERVAL, sub { local ($?,
$!); _waitpids($pids); });
...

You probably aren't running code on a 32bit PPC CPU running at 400Mhz :-)

I can try that, but I'm trying to avoid the CGI code by porting each
sub-app to Mojolicious, and using the Mount plugin.
