# This allows vfork to be used for spawning subprocesses if
# ~/.cache/public-inbox/inline-c is writable or if PERL_INLINE_DIRECTORY
# is explicitly defined in the environment (and writable).
# Under Linux, vfork can make a big difference in spawning performance
# as process size increases (fork still needs to mark pages for CoW use).
# Currently, we only use this for code intended for long running
# daemons (inside the PSGI code (-httpd) and -nntpd). The short-lived
# scripts (-mda, -index, -learn, -init) either use IPC::run or standard
# Perl routines.
#
# There'll probably be more OS-level C stuff here, down the line.
# We don't want too many DSOs: https://udrepper.livejournal.com/8790.html
