I find it easier to start more MX virtuals that run their own postfix
+ lmtpd to increase throughput and use multiple MX records on domains
to distribute the load over the virtuals.

If running multiple instances of lmtpd on a single machine is needed,
you need either: a preforking setup (which share the address of the
listening socket), a threaded lmtpd, or completely separate processes
that listen on different addresses or unix-sockets.

To use the last solution while sending all mail to the same address
(myhost:24) you would need a proxy like haproxy.
