Hi,
Just started testing PPerl 0.25, perl v5.8.5, qpsmtpd-cvs-20040817.
When it starts up I get 64 ./qpsmtpd processes obviously all with the same
start time. If I look a few hours later I see that some (10-15) processes
now have a later start time. It seems that some of the original processes
have died and were restarted. Is this to be expected? Or is something
wrong. I assumed those 64 processes would run forever.
No, like Apache, PPerl has a maxclients setting, and the processes will exit (and a new one reborn) after that number of connections.
