A few months ago I was experimenting with multi-processing in
LiveCode as an alternative to multi-threading. The literature on
each notes the higher overhead of the former compared to the latter,
but also that the overhead is not as significant as one might think.
In many cases multi-processing allows for less complex code than
multi-threading by virtue of being able to rely on OS partitioning
of memory and CPU resources rather than having to manage all of that
internally via threads.
In those early tests I was interested in seeing just how many
requests I could throw at a single non-threaded LC-based daemon
listening on port 80. This required a VPS, of course, since shared
hosts generally don't allow always-on processes.
Would you care to provide more technical details on those tests?
