I believe that depends more on how to 'scale out' rather than scale within a single process(what libevent wants to solve) or machine.
Almost all the containers(like apache, lighttpd etc.) can already handle the role of dispatching(massive connections) quite efficiently. I see no point implementing that in lua or other languages unless your need is very specific.
