Hi, Is it possible to have shared memory in the form of shared global variables in PHP? Or any other form of shared memory? And if that is the case, is there any form of mutex functionality which may be used to assure syncronized access to this memory? My next question is related to the first one. Is it possible to have a thread running for processing of information. This thread should be accessed from all the session instances, and it would also need to be syncronized. I would like to have something like: jobProcessorThread.addJob(aJobClassInstance) The job processor thread should work with the jobs in its queue until the queue is empty. Then it should idle until more requests are received. And my last question. Is it possible to let any code run and perform its work after PHP has sent the page to the user? This could be an alternative to having a worker thread in if it's also possible to have mutexes and shared memory. Then the worker thread jobs could be processed after a page has been sent inside a critical block protected by mutex functionality. Best regards, Kent
