That process isn't allowed to fork, I assume, which is problematic.

I'm not proposing a fork either. Each thread would open a separate socket with the SO_REUSEPORT set. The kernel would then have a separate queue per socket.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

I'm saying that none of those threads can start any programs. That may or not be required by your use-case, but it's certainly a disadvantage.
