On Linux (and some other *nixes), there's a funky little thing that
happens when a process that is bound to a socket is forked.

All of the forked processes are also bound to the socket, and the
kernel will distribute connections between them.  It's a low cost way
to load balance between workers on a machine that is running an OS
which will support it.
