Here's the thought.
What if we created a read call that was identical in every way, except you passed it a SHM handle. It would directly write the data to the SHM segment rather than doing a NIC -> kernel -> user operation?
This would make a one copy high performance, low-latency TCP read for the Cluster nuts.
