Hi, all. Why is it normally suggested to stop the server, upgrade it,
then start it? Wouldn't it be easier & quicker to simply upgrade the
package in-place and restart the service? On OSen that allow
modification of currently running binaries, which is most Unix OS, M$
Windows being a notable exception )

Thanks.
