Because there is no I/O It is true that your Perl script isn't doing the I/O, but it is very much not true that "there is no I/O". Whether Perl is doing the I/O or computing vs. some other program doing it has little bearing on the performance impact of having Perl fork() so you can have more than 1 instance running at once. - tye
