[Xitami] pipe####.cgo/cgi files

[xitami@lists.xitami.org]

As I understand it (from previous discussions) is that the *.cgi & *.cgo files
are a fact of life with that version. You can't turn the output off. I have
however discovered that in the cfg file that you can specify which directory
that they are put in - which is what I do. I host a site that runs an
intensive .pl script that outputs hundreds (sometimes thousands)of the cgi &
cgo files a day. I also discovered that they will get overwritten at a certain
point in a FILO fashion leaving a constant 1000 files or so in that directory.
I do have to restart Xitami once a week to get the memory release and I then
clear out the cgi and cgo files so that they can start at zero again.
