Hey,

I'm writing an API for some shared libraries that are written with a 
"binary" use in mind.
They use a ton of global state and are not thread safe.
Of course as a server, multiple users could try to use the server at the 
same time, these libraries can't deal with that. What's more they also like 
to segfault sometimes.

So what I'd like to do is have these shared libraries completely in their 
own address space.
What would be the best way to do that?

One thing I thought could work is have a blocking accept loop, and then 
fork the handling of the connection. Not sure how this would work with kj.

The other solution would be that you launch a process in the method handler 
that runs its own capnp server, and then proxy calls to it. Seems like it 
adds more overhead.

Regards,
Pepijn
