As a caveat: my latest tests with Araneida/multithreaded SBCL have been
performed last year. I tried to use the mt Araneida server model for our
application but encounered reproduceable deadlocks/hangs in the
application -- there should be some SBCL mailing list entries about
these in Google's memory. I got the impression that the mt server wasn't
nearly as "maintained" as the serve-event one (and i never had enough
time to dive into the mt server code and fix it).

We use the serve-event-listener in one of our Applications (even without
a proxy in front of it). But that site has only moderate traffic 
rezensionen.zeit.de).

To me it looks like you'd have to fix two places: araneida's mt server
code as well as SBCL's socket handling in a multithreaded environment.
