ok I 'd say this is working nicely as far as the number of filters not being 
one.

the load increased dramatically on the server though, and I guess this is due 
to the invokation of PHP for every filter. This is not hurting in any way yet 
but I guess if the load increases further then launching more filters might 
eventually exhaust the box.

Is the no way to keep the PHP interpreter started at all time to save the 
startup cost?
