Hey,

For the baseline I used the CVS version from yesterday (8/3) morning.
Then I applied Brian's "thread-specific free list for pools" patch.

I used these configs:
    StartServers         1 
    MaxClients           1 
    MinSpareThreads      5 
    MaxSpareThreads     10 
    ThreadsPerChild     25 

For the test, I requested 500 news.com pages that have 2 virtual
includes.  The pages were copies of the same file but had different
names.  (lynx -source http://hungry.cnet.com/2file/00${i}.html)

handle_include + descendants were 9.5% faster with Brian's patch, and
accounted for 5.89% of the total time, as opposed to 6.28% of the
total time for the baseline.  Overall, Brian's patch reduced the
number of cycles by 3.74%.

Now, I must add that these are Quantify numbers, not real world
numbers. 
So, what's next?
