06ba4a61654b3763ad65f52283832ebf058fdf1cslive <p>On certain unix operating systems, forking a process from a
06ba4a61654b3763ad65f52283832ebf058fdf1cslive multi-threaded server is a very expensive operation because the
06ba4a61654b3763ad65f52283832ebf058fdf1cslive new process will replicate all the threads of the parent
06ba4a61654b3763ad65f52283832ebf058fdf1cslive process. In order to avoid incurring this expense on each CGI

06ba4a61654b3763ad65f52283832ebf058fdf1cslive responsible for forking child processes to run CGI scripts. The
06ba4a61654b3763ad65f52283832ebf058fdf1cslive main server communicates with this daemon using a unix domain
06ba4a61654b3763ad65f52283832ebf058fdf1cslive socket.</p>
