What about multiple concurrent connections? You can’t avoid creating extra
processes in that situation.

Responding generally, not specifically to Marc, but since I've
plonked the troll, I don't see his responses (I highly suggest
others do the same).

But this assertion in particular is silly and deserves a
rebuttal for the benefit of others.

I suppose the troll has never heard of event-driven programming,
or asynchronous IO, or, for that matter, threads.  Any of these
allow multiple connections to be served by a single process.
