Each time a user starts a Perl-CGI application, it starts a new Perl process. It may be instructive to run several Perl scripts which take a while, and watch the NT server's Task Manager/Processes tab.
FYI, be careful when Perl has to write to a file when multiple users could be using the application. You may want to implement a file-locking mechanism, such as creating a separate file, when that file is being used.

Subject: how to handdle concurrent users?
Hi,
many thanks to the people who helped me with my previous questions...
Here is a new one:
I am using perl cgi in IIS (win NT) to create a web based application, and I
am trying to figure out
how to hanndle concurrent users, how to hanndle the case of many users
running the application. The application calls perl cgi scripts and command
line applications.
I do not have great experience with cgi, so I am trying to figure things
out.
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
