If you are running a large, dedicated server, and can reliably guarantee that it won't run low on memory and dip into swap, then --round-robin is actually more efficient (sorry Matt ;). The Apache model is more efficient in the case that there may be some swapping-out of scanner children. - --j. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Exmh CVS iD8DBQFDWS4kMJF5cimLx9ARAiNgAJ9ysNbxat9nlgU4rUd22+ycKs7yAQCfQDsC 3KQauVNQnyCcdhkcAnrXK4U= =jB5w -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
