It is correct in context. Mighttpd does not use the -Nx argument to create multiple OS threads, instead uses a `prefork` model that creates separate processes to balance user invocations. Using multiple processes instead of multiple Haskell threads avoids issues with garbage collection.

I should rephrase that: using multiple processes in place of -Nx threads avoids issues with GC. Mighttpd does use multiple Haskell threads per Haskell process.
