What's the chance that there will be a better multicore cpu
support throught a better fork functionality in PHP 6?
Today pcntl_fork is available only on Unix/Linux cgi versions.

Thanks, Markus

If you are talking about running multiple threads inside same PHP
process, then chances are not very high, unless somebody proposes some
ingenious solution not involving starting separate processes/threads.
