MD forks the worker process and the worker process initializes libperl
and loads the perl script.
To share more memory on a fork, it should initialize libperl and load
the perl script before forking off the worker processes.
BTW switching to vfork() won't speed up anything significantly IMHO as
processes are (re)started quite seldom - it is not that one starts a
process for each mail .....
