This is exactly why I prefer classic over super server. Even though
superserver on linux takes less ram and processor to do the same job, I
will be sticking to classic when the users are less than say 50 users
because its a lot easier to kill those haywire little processes. If
there are more than 50 or so users, I will probably use superserver for
ram efficiency due to shared cache, etc.
