> Each request is pretty much independent of the others, and each one can independently crash.

Not the case anymore with phpfpm.

php-fpm uses a worker pool. How is this true unless you corrupt the shared memory segment?

I haven't checked it, but I think the worker stays up, and deal with several requests during its life time, not just one then die. Hence, there is pesistence.

As long as there is nothing broken in internals (a very big if, to be fair), user code crashing will not affect subsequent requests.
