a simple prefork server framework. ruby port of perl's Parallel::Prefork

Carrousel is a robust utility designed to take a list of generic items, and given some command, perform that command on each item in that list. Depending on the commands return value, Carrousel will track which items have been completed successfully, and retry items as necessary. It will save your progress in a status database and you can quit the loop and come back later to finish unprocessed items.
