[racket] Web server

I haven't looked into the Racket web server much yet, so I'd like to understand the implications of this. 

My experience is with stateless http app servers (primarily with Unicorn Ruby servers at the moment), so firing up a number of worker processes and having something like nginx proxy to them works well to fully utilize all cores.

I think I read that the Racket web server makes use of continuations, so I expect some sort of process affinity would be necessary, where a given user's requests are always proxied to the same worker process - is that right? Is it common to use multiple web server processes in Racket web apps?

In your estimation, what is the feasibility of adding multi-core support to the Racket web server? For example, is it reasonably feasible and on the current roadmap, or would it require massive changes to the web server?

Thanks,
Brian
