Hello Michael,

Are you saying that Perl with ithreads is slower, therefore 
implementation of threading on Perl is generally avoided?

I write apps for both Windows and UNIX platforms. I thought that 
iThreads is the better alternative to forking, which I think is not well 
implemented in Windows.
