how to stop RPC::XML::Server blocking

[Robin Sheat]

Hi, I have a small XML-RPC server I wrote using the RPC::XML::Server module, 
however I found that if a single task given to it takes some time, then it 
prevents any more requests from happening. I'd like to have each task started 
in its own thread (preferably with the ability to specify an upper limit, 
after which it blocks to stop it getting hammered with thread creation).

Is there a nice way to do this without writing my own RPC::XML::Server 
replacement?

Cheers, Robin.

Sure. Just run your server in a mod_perl enabled apache:
