That's a valid point. OTOH I think we must *highly* improve our
authentification workflow (read: rewrite it completely ;-) )
So if we can find a solution for that ...

well= I have absolutely no doubts that Koha+Plack will work *better* on
low-spec machines than in CGI !
1 thread, keep alive for 30 requests means, according to dobrika, 60MB
On a low-spec machine, the number of Plack threads can be limited to 3 or 2
instead of 6, to reach a low memory consumption.
(I don't count the plack itself here. Dobrika, if you can give us numbers...
