In reality about 10 sessions can be usefully achieved with the default
CPU sharing levels and a PII processor.
On some systems the multitasker can be a little unstable, but
in most cases it works really well.

Arachne is at http://www.naf.cz/arachne
But:
(Shameless plug for webspydr)
Caldera Webspydr is based on Arachne Source code.
Made to run in protected mode, and with most of Arachne's bugs fixed.
It runs under Allegro, so any videomode should work.
Arachne uses 'fake-frames' , but True frames are being worked upon for
Webspyder. Smooth Scrolling will also be implemented soon.
Later releases will support Java and Javascript.
