Thinking about long-running servers... Has anyone looked into core-dumping a Racket process image so that it can be loaded as a new process quickly (a la Emacs)? Or looked into forking a pool of Racket processes (a la Apache) to use process isolation to be resilient in case of problems like memory leaks?

Background... I've recently converted a large Web application from CGI and SCGI, and it's worked quite well in interactive testing and automated load testing so far. However, this got me thinking about backup plans, in case we find in later load testing, say, a case with long lists that the CGC (which we're stuck with for now) is too conservative about.
