I think I need to check this thread from going in weird direction.

The solution I found was to use hundreds of unix domain stream sockets. But
doesn't sound good. Currently I am trying to decipher what stevens has wrote
about descriptor passing useing message queues. That will take few days for
me as this is spare time activity.

If that works will use pipes and pass the descriptor between threads.
Otherwise back to sockets...

BTW, AFAICT, message queues does not support huge amount of data. I would
certainly not choose them if I am not even aware of order of data being
passed, forget the magnitude...
