I have code in a worker thread that needs to efficiently read a
constantly-growing input stream from a process.
The issue is that the present design uses a sleep() for a short period
if there is no input presently available, and I'd like the attempt to
read the input stream simply *block* so it
Use Java thread synchronization:

Have the reader thread wait when there is no data and the writer
thread notify the reader when more data is available (and when it
should exit its processing loop).
