Possibilities for future improvement

• Move away from standard Unix daemon fork()/exec() model

  • Instead, have daemon ìmasterî process that has pre-forked ìworkerî processes

• Donít create/destroy queue files

  • Have a cache of queue files that get used, emptied, and returned to the pool to be used again
  • Most meta-data (synchronous?) operations are avoided
