+Looking at Apache or Samba projects, it seems that a good compromise is to
+set a 'maximum client requests by thread' and spawns threads accordingly.
+Apache uses process forking and memory sharing, but the design remains the
+same. You then just tune this max_request_by_thread for each OS, say 1 for
+Solaris which is said thread-efficient, 10 for Linux ? Just a hint ...
