Yes. Originally there was no -j option to qpsmtpd-async. But my
sysadmin bitched at me that we have 4 CPUs so I should use them all :-)
So the plan is either to do some sort of communication with the
children (that's setup now for the HUP controller, so should be
matter of just coding it to use that), or for the shared data to be
able to use shared memory or something. My gut feeling is the former
is the better option.
