 > 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.
