By no means did I intend to imply that running multiple copies of the server
on different ports was the only way to achieve the effects I mentioned, just
that doing so gave them "for free" (of course, you have to have the memory
and CPU time to run the second copy, so it is not really free).
However, I suspect that the main reason to run multiple copies of the server
is the first reason I mentioned - the decrease in likelihood of new/buggy
code crashing the players' server. Implementing such stability into an
existing codebase would be decidedly non-trivial (to say the least), unless
that codebase was designed with that in mind from day one (the average Diku
was not).
