Hi Gonzalo,

   you are right; I had 'portmap' service down, so 'fam' did not work.
   With 'fam' working, the 'mod-mono-server' process have 0.0 of %CPU
   when there is no request. cool! ;)

   Nevertheless there still something wrong: when the process has
   activity (there is a request) if I do an 'strace' to the process I
   get the following lines:

--- SIGPWR (Power failure) @ 0 (0) ---
write(6, "#\0\0\0\4\0\0\0\200{\33\10\200\37\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"..., 148) = 148
rt_sigsuspend(~[INT QUIT ABRT BUS SEGV TERM XCPU] <unfinished ...>
--- SIGXCPU (CPU time limit exceeded) @ 0 (0) ---
<... rt_sigsuspend resumed> )           = -1 EINTR (Interrupted system call)
sigreturn()                             = ? (mask now ~[INT QUIT ABRT BUS KILL SEGV TERM STOP])
sigreturn()                             = ? (mask now [RTMIN])
rt_sigsuspend([] <unfinished ...>

   Do you have any idea about the problem on it?

   salutes,
   Eduardo
