Looks like we got a simple, old and standard way to "share priviledges" for file descriptors. Thanx for the help.
Now... anyone have ideas on how to convince the scheduler to prefer certain context switches (i.e. between tightly-coupled server-client pairs)? I know we were discussing latency recently. Latency seems to be, itself, the one big drawback of the server-client model.
