Reality check time!

1) The Oracle listener ONLY handles initial connection requests & then
gets out of the way

2) Keep in mind that Ethernet was orginally designed to run on coaxial cable.
This means that only a single piece of wire exists to transmit/recieve
the signal.
Only ONE device at a time can be transmitting on the cable at a time.
Even if you could (which I don't think you can) get multiple process
to listen on the same port,  there will only ever be a single "talker"
transmitting at time. Therefore you'd gain NO
benefit from having multiple listeners on the same SUBNET interface.

HTH & YMMV
