In that case, you should really consider using the real "mod_lisp",
not "cgi_sock". The latter was never intended for loads in the
100 req/s per image range -- more like the 1-10 req/s range! ;-}
[Though I have seen it run at >100 req/s, for trivial requests.]

But "mod_lisp" has been documented[1] as running well in excess
of 1000 req/s!! So if you really care about speed...
