One interpreter is created per one apache child process. If you're running 
prefork MPM (and set MaxRequestsPerChild or have multiple spare child 
servers), you're posting a HTTP request sometimes to the same interpreter, 
sometimes to other interpreter. 
I think one of 'inter-process' techniques is useful for what you're 
trying.
