As far as I know, in the prefork model, a single child process (no threads) handles each input request. So I am assuming the response is sent after the chid process finishes processing the request. Also, the child process sets its state as idle in a scoreboard as and when it finishes processing the request ,so that, the parent process can keep track of number of idle child processes. My question is that, if I use the prefork model (configured for only one child process) and I have a module that launches a seperate thread within the child process to do my work and just returns an HTTP OK response, from the main thread, the parent process would still assume the child process is idle but the child is actually doing something (in the seperate thread that I launched). I was wondering what the behavior would be in this scenario .
