Either compute faster ({grin}) or fork to handle each request to get the problem into a separate thread.

Without seeing code, it's hard to give specific advice.

    Thanks :) I think I see the path I must take now. In that case, what is the best way to share information between these processes? I was using a select based server to do that, but I am actually more partial to the multiprocess method.

    What steps would I need to set up an apache style server, where I just hand off connections to each pre-spawned child process?
