Hi,

With the help of Samuel Martin's patches for cross-compiling [1], I have
managed to get Nginx running on Rump Kernel powered Unikernels on the Xen
hypervisor [2] [3].

Given that we don't have fork() or exec() I have to run Nginx with
"master_process off". The documentation states it should NEVER be be run in
this mode in production, however basic load tests (ab, siege) appear to run
fine.

Are there any non-obvious implications to running with "master_process
off"? Reading through the different ngx_..._process_cycle() functions
nothing obvious jumps out at me.

Thanks,

Martin
