It is not about retrieving URL alone. Your program is url-scgi.el
right? Maybe I am mistaken. 

Your program is supposed to talk to web server, right?

And I am supposed to send information to web server.

Web server is to notify my program which uses url-scgi.el 

And dispatching of pieces of information will happen
asynchronously. That is the purpose of your program. Do I get it
right? If not, then Emacs could or would need to be spawned in memory
each time if it would be standard CGI:

I need not start from scratch when I just need few adjustments.
