A little update on this. It seems that I can instantiate as many workers
as I want from one process. But when I hit another process it will fail
within a few requests, something like:

localhost:3000/new_worker
localhost:3000/new_worker
localhost:3000/new_worker
localhost:3000/new_worker
localhost:3001/new_worker
localhost:3001/new_worker
localhost:3001/new_worker
*boom*

If I only instantiate one worker and reuse it across requests there
seems to be no problem.

Am I the only one experiencing this?
