The best setup for a preforking SCGI server is a central dispatcher thatparcels new connections out to a pool of worker processes; this requiresthe ability to pass file descriptors to other processes. While Unix cando this (with SCM_RIGHTS messages over Unix domain sockets), Pythondoesn'


1984再不是1984 — 一個Mac頭的誕生

1984是George Orwell 1949年出版的著名小說,內容講及未來世界,人類被極權政府獨裁統治,人類的一舉一動,都備受Big Brother監視和控制。
