yes, threads running around could become a show stopper for both Mono and MS.NET This is something I want to be sure of before I begin. > Another way to do it is "the PL/J" way (I think).

This is actually my plan B, hence it is less dangerous. I am thinking the "started process" can stay alive and act as a service of some kind to handle/answer calls form multiple backends and shutdown itself after a period of time being idle.
