> Do you mind elaborating on what the "enhanced security" is
If you use server_pool, the worksheet process now run in a way that is
much, much safer than it was before. In particular, they don't have read
or write access to anything outside /tmp (except to the DATA dir
temporarily in their worksheet), whereas the old worksheet processes could
pretty much delete or change all the worksheet data for any worksheet.

This enhanced security is totally automatic for anybody that uses the
server_pool option.
