Do you mean that the blocking version should keep waiting for new bytes
until they show up?
This would not be acceptable, since the program would hang forever most
of the time (no changes to the buffer would ever occur in this situation
when there's only the main thread running).
Am I understanding this correctly:
* The blocking version would not do any raw reads.
* The non-blocking version would do.
