Just an FYI to add on this, there is no way to have multiple nova-network processes (at least no simple way to do it).

https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/cmd/network.py

The service has no "workers" configuration, unlike services like the conductor...

https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/cmd/conductor.py

It is possible to launch multiple instances but typically I don't think a cloud operator has reason to think that nova-network requires launching many instances.. it is (implied) to be a fairly quiet/low CPU consuming process.
