Bruce,
    None of the options you have would work for serious production
application unless you invest heavily in making the client and server code
more reliable. Please keep in mind that once you go that route you are on
your own for data traffic robustness and performance.

I would try to see if you can scale application in any other way - 4 core
single CPU and removal all business functionality to different servers is
always an option. You might get even better scalablity by going RTMP
route or provide pseudo-connectivity wrapper using non-blocking IO  via
client - proxy - LCDS - Messaging - LCDS - proxy -client pish.

Regards,
Anatole
