Multiprocessors best benefit multiple backends. And the current forked
model lends itself admirably to SMP.
And I say that even after using a multithreaded webserver (AOLserver)
for three and a half years. Of course, AOLserver also sanely uses the
multi process PostgreSQL backends in a pooled fashion, but that's beside
the point.
