I see. I agree, then. > What type of issue specifically concerns you?

Given that you had done away with the feeder, I had assumed that you'd just set things up so that for N sort workers on an M byte input, worker i would start at the next line boundary after byte offset (i*M/N). I was essentially wondering how you could accurately determine the actual line boundaries in a multibyte file. But I now understand that you are not doing things that way.
