Anything wrong in running always with -DONE_PROCESS?

We are using Apache2 on Windows and we have a daemon that creates httpd.conf
and takes care of starting and stopping Apache. It can also restart Apache if
it dies accidentally.

Is there any reason why we should not always start Apache with -DONE_PROCESS
command line option?

I understand it is usually meant for debugging, but are there any adverse
effects in running like that?

For one, the process will not be able to respond to restart commands.  In 
order to change the config, you'd have to kill the process and then start a 
new one.  -- justin
