There are patches to make CERN prefork. I can dig out a reference if
required, but I recommend harvest cached from http://excalibur.usc.edu/
Harvest cached does not fork at all, but maintains its own internal
multi-threading type code. Load average on our machine went from 5-6
with CERN, to 3 with prefork CERN to 2.5 with Netscape Proxy to 0.6 with
harvest cached. Harvest cached can handle 21,000+ connections per hour on
a DEC AXP 3000/300 with 96 MB RAM.
