Well, perhaps I'm missing something, but if you are already working with threads, which is the problem in making one of them to listen for external commands and other(s) dealing with PyTables taks? As complementary info, PyTables releases the GIL in most of the expensive I/O C calls (and acquires it back when the operation is done, of course), so your threaded application can potentially make use of other processors (if any) in your system while the I/O can be managed by one (or more) of them.
