Re: [WEB400] CGI question...






In short, you can't in a production type environment. It is possible to
configure the HTTP server so it can only start one job for CGI but those
same settings also drag down performance for other requests as well if
memory serves. Let me ask you this: Are you using basic authentication
and making each request run under the logged in users user profile? If
so, the HTTP server will start a new CGI job for each person by design
(I think you can configure how long each job sticks around if you're
doing this). The HTTP server documentation (IBM's, not apache.org's)
talks about this in the section that covers basic authentication.
