Good to know. I'm following p5p but have only recognized the CLONE_SKIP discussion ;-)
Just visited the p5p Olympus, and I was told that while COW exists it's not used by perl_clone (threads) yet. But it's planned to try and see whether it improves the situation some time later (probably after Nicholas releases 5.8.7).
