Thanks! Seems to work well so far. Though I must admit, I've run into some open 
file limits that I didn't when using AE::Worker. I suspect this is just me not 
catching an error somewhere and some files or connections being kept open.

One other idea I had was the ability to name the forked processes. Right now 
they appear as something like:

  AnyEvent::Fork of 14079
  AnyEvent::Fork::RPC::Sync::run of 14079

With a few of these running it can be a bit confusing. It would be helpful if 
there were an option to name the template process (hopefully using this term 
correctly), and the children could also include it.

Thanks,
