are you guys trying to describe Fork/Join?
I guess planning for menagerie to implement Fork/Join (slated for java
7) would be a good thing? :)

Just to throw it in, https://github.com/openutility/menagerie also has
blocking and synchronous queue implementations.
If we had a deque, this would be a great opportunity for a work stealing
scenario as well. You could give each consumer its own deque, then the
leader could use round robin to load balance. When a consumer has finished a
task, it removes that item from the deque. Once a consumer runs out of items
on its deque, it starts taking items off the back of someone else's. That
way, when a machine dies or becomes slow, another machine can seamlessly
take over its work.
I'm working on a general purpose implementation for menagerie now, but a
deque shouldn't be that hard to make, if you follow the queue recipe
mentioned above
