Basically, I want to write server (in PHP) that listeners on a
particular port, and spins off a thread/process (essentially, execute
a separate script) for each incoming connection. There won't be a lot
of data to process, but there will be many simultaneous
connections—upwards of 1000s of connections (each spun off as seperate
threads).
Building it yourself can be lots of fun and I have done this using
stream_select, fork, and other PCNTL and IPC functions. If you like
Pear, you can check out the Net Server package there. They have models
to do the forking for you for each client connection:

Although I didn't use Net Server, I did review the code to get ideas on
how I'd like to build my server. It is useful.
