What about multiple concurrent connections? You can’t avoid creating

True.
 
But they will all be kept around and reused. OSU HTTPD use it for CGI
scripts - it works.

But there’s a resource-usage cost associated with keeping processes in
existence, isn’t there. As opposed to letting the server process control
for itself how it will divide up multiple concurrent connections among a
set of service processes/threads.

(I know, CGI doesn’t give you that control anyway. This is why Web
developers don’t like to use CGI nowadays.)
