At first if you poll for an fd in more than one thread you can balance the load. (When a thread handle a message another thread can read. Just like in spamassassin :) At second there may be more than one destionation or you can connect to a database with more than one connection. So it can be parallelable too. At third there _may_ be some processing between log reading and writing.
