Just the tip of the iceberg. There are a bunch of libraries that PHP can talk to that are not threadsafe. It's going to take a while before Apache2+PHP is going to be useful. For GD specifically, yes we can put in some mutexes as I earlier today put a copy of the GD library into PHP CVS so we can fiddle with it and distribute our own modified GD with PHP. -Rasmus On Sat, 13 Apr 2002, Brian Havard wrote:
