I checked the web site (of course) and now I understand HOW it
works (residing in memory connection pooling) - but I swear,
after 15 minutes there I still can't figure out what features it
exposes.

I'm (mildy) concerned about having a CGI that I don't know what
it does.

What's particularly weird is how it reports that it resides in a
subdirectory of cgi-bin when I don't have any subdirectories in
CGI-bin.
