hard storage. This will also allow the journaling layer to retain
portions of the journaling stream in the MEMORY FIFO and SECONDARY SPOOL
in case the stream connection breaks and needs to be re-created (as would
happen quite often for an off-site journaling stream), without losing
any data, and to handle data backups that occur if the STREAM is a slow off-site link or if a glitch occurs. The MEMORY FIFO will allow us to
batch operations, reducing context switches and allowing me to implement
the worker thread concept as a very efficient asynchronous design.



Fantastic, you are a programming god! The famous "quo non ascendat" is well fit to you.
