Agreed; for my own applications, I've borrowed the design of mod_ssl's cache, where you've got shared memory segments protected with global mutexes, and that works nicely. In this particular case, the question seemed to be about wanting to hack something private into the balancers part of the scoreboard, for reasons left unspecified, so I was trying to respond to how I'd do that myself ... if, for some unknown reason, that was necessary. That said, I have a scoreboard enhancement in the pipeline, but it's specifically for tracking additional process and thread state information, and I'll definitely post it here for review.
