Creating a thread pool isn't hard. Here's a rudimentary example that u should be able to run with.
$x = 1; share $working; $jobs = new Thread::Queue; ${"t". ++$x} = thread->create("entrypoint") for (1..10); sub entrypoint { for (;;) { $commanddata = $jobs->dequeue_nb; sleep 1 and next unless $commanddata; $working++; do_something($commanddata); $working--; } } Now u have a pool of threads, $t1 to $t10. $working tells u how many are available. The message queue lets u send work that will be picked up by the next available thread.
