<p>This MPM is a developer playground and highly experimental, so it
may or may not work as expected.</p>

<p>This is an experimental variant of the standard worker MPM.
Rather than queuing connections like the worker MPM, the
<code class="module"><a href="../mod/threadpool.html">threadpool</a></code> MPM queues idle worker threads and
hands each accepted connection to the next available worker.</p>
<p>The <code class="module"><a href="../mod/threadpool.html">threadpool</a></code> MPM can't match the performance of
the <code class="module"><a href="../mod/worker.html">worker</a></code> MPM in benchmark testing. As of 2.0.39,
some of the key load-throtting concepts from the <code class="module"><a href="../mod/threadpool.html">threadpool</a></code> MPM have been incorporated into the <code class="module"><a href="../mod/worker.html">worker</a></code> MPM. The <code class="module"><a href="../mod/threadpool.html">threadpool</a></code> code is useful
primarily as a research platform. For general-purpose use and for any
production environments, use <code class="module"><a href="../mod/worker.html">worker</a></code> instead.</p>
