   <para>
-   This module is experimental and NOT SUPPORTED.  When complete, it
-   will enable Metaproxy to share resources such as result-sets
-   between multiple threads, yielding performance improvements.
+   This filter implements global sharing of
+   result sets (i.e. between threads and therefore between
+   clients), yielding performance improvements especially when
+   incoming requests are from a stateless environment such as a
+   web-server, in which the client process representing a session
+   might be any one of many.
+   It performs the following actions:
+   <itemizedlist>
+    <listitem>
+     <para>
+      Reduce the number of backend server sessions.
+     </para>

+       When a backend session is idle for more than this amount of
+       time, given in seconds, it will be closed. Default value
+       is 90 seconds.

+       This specifies the maximum number of result-sets in use by
+       a backend. The number only applies to targets/servers with named
+       result sets. Targets that do not support named result sets
+       may only have one active result set. Default value is 10.
