DragonFly BSD has implemented SO_REUSEPORT since July 2013 too; http://lists.dragonflybsd.org/pipermail/users/2013-July/0... has some very interesting performance numbers.

SO_REUSEPORT naturally aligns with networks stacks parallelized like DFly's/Solaris's (hash connection state early, map & fanout to a fixed CPU per connection, no locking till you hit socket buffer layer).
