Hi, sure you all have heard of Google Chrome. Reading their comic strips [1], I got reminded of Postgres, because they use a multi-process architecture [2] as well, selling it as *the* new security feature. Maybe we can hop on that train? Something like: "Google got inspired by Postgres: they use the same multi-process architecture for their browser as Postgres already features for many years. Simply because it provides better crash-safety than threaded applications." It might help a bit in getting rid of those puzzled faces that tend to appear when telling people, that Postgres doesn't use threads... Even if we don't push that, it certainly is another good and famous example of multi-process architectures. Regards Markus Wanner [1]: the architecture comic strip for Google Chrome: http://www.google.com/googlebooks/chrome/ (processes vs threads starts at page 3) [2]: more docs about their multi-process architecture: http://dev.chromium.org/developers/design-documents/multi-process-architecture PS: I'm already wondering how their Browser copes with an OOM killer ;-)
