Very interesting. Is this something waiting to be added into the official
kernel or just a nutty add on somebody came up with? That could be really
useful with MySQL. I've seen even heavy duty machines get pretty beat up
by even a few hundred queries running. If I understand you though Apache
itself won't yet work because it used shared memory even if your using a
new multi-threaded version?

Less important but how do things like Quake work under it? Would it let
two P133's compare in speed w/ a single P266 for example if the network
was fairly fast?
