If so, what is the logic behind this? (Unix forking is remarkably fast, and starting fresh each time seems much safer/cleaner.)
Cyrus does recycle processes. Unix forking is amazingly slow compared to not forking and on servers that receive many connections a second this performance tweak is vital. Larry
