Are we talking about offloading regular file operations to worker threads? I spent some time experimenting with the idea (and thread-local poller loop with __thread etc.). AFAIR, used pipe for...

It seems closing the write end of a pipe can be a difficult business. If the fd is closed in one thread then other writer threads waiting in poll/epoll will...
