Both of them seem to be a hassle for what i need (and given the time i
have). hipac seems to be a 2.4.x thing and pool requires me to recompile
a few things (while docs look scarce). I dont have much time to get this
done by - when i have more time in the future i could do it.

Any recommendation of how i should arrange the chains?
