I have a read stream which is a HUGE file of xml. I want to parse the file 
transforming the data and converting it to json. It will then be written to 
a database. 

the write to the database (done over http) is really slow so i need to 
somehow wait for the writes to complete before receiving and parsing more 
data. How do i do this ? is it acceptable for the write to the database to 
be done synchronously if its in a pipe? I don't see how i can slow down the 
read stage without blocking ?
