Vamsi, I'd suggest checking out bcrl's (Benjamin La Haise (sp?)) asynchronous I/O implementation in the newer kernels (and probably some RedHat kernels, such as found in their RHAS product) that is modelled slightly off of the POSIX asynchronous I/O specification, but is slightly different. (I think a userland libredhat library provides a compatability interface for POSIX aio semantics.) -- Too bad life doesn't have a :q! command.
