Yep. The common solution I've seen is to have a separate thread
running to read from the stream/buffer the content (and suffer the
blocking) and the main thread to simply return the data from the the
buffer or nothing if there is nothing (and not suffer the blocking).

There is a PROPER way, but it is a completely different file i/o
mechanism to the one currently used by PHP (and those that use the
second thread technique).
