That's ~14k forks per sec. Do you still think you need parallel
forking?

Yeah, looks pretty good actually. Hmmm, this is on a single socket w/
shared cache where cacheline bouncing is quite cheap, right? Also,
how are those forking processes related? On multiple sockets, it's
gonna scale worse. Dunno how much tho.

At any rate, if you do the rest in paralllel, whether forking is
parallel or not is immaterial. Let's just do something least
intrusive.

Thanks.
