Based on looking over the diff, I'm starting to wonder if the slowdown is 
primiarly
occuring due to later changes somewhere because of:

        * fork.cc (fork_retry): Define.
        (frok::parent): Reorganize to allow retry of failed child creation if
        child signalled that it was ok to do so.

Since it now it appears to be operating in an infinite loop with breakouts. 
What's
the best way of narrowing down the actual reason for slowdown? strace? Modifying
the diff to add extra debugging output specifying the amount of retries that may
have occured?
