> We should consider allowing two programs on the same host using libprocess to communicate via Unix domain sockets rather than TCP. This has a few advantages:
> * Security: remote hosts cannot connect to the Unix socket. Domain sockets also offer additional support for [authentication|https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora_Security_Team/1/html/Defensive_Coding/sect-Defensive_Coding-Authentication-UNIX_Domain.html].
> * Performance: domain sockets are marginally faster than localhost TCP.
