If you are talking about threaded mpms, the TIPool idea stays just as an idea, because now we have threads::shared that will do. Just give it some time because there is lot of work being done in that direction as you read this. Gerald Richter and Tim Bunce are working on the thread-safe DBI. A few folks at p5p are creating a bunch of new modules around threads:: and threads::shared::, just yesterday a new module: Thread::Pool was released by Elizabeth Mattijsen. Which seems to be what's needed for Apache::DBITPool. Feel free to join the efforts and make things happen faster. __________________________________________________________________ Stas Bekman JAm_pH ------> Just Another mod_perl Hacker http://stason.org/ mod_perl Guide ---> http://perl.apache.org mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://use.perl.org http://apacheweek.com http://modperlbook.org http://apache.org http://ticketmaster.com
