I think we should, for the final solution, perform the filling of the
mmap'ed file outside the driver thread, as Stephen suggested, in
order to avoid blocking it.
The currrent implementation is more/less the same as  AS is doing in
the latest code. Not that it is bad, I mean. It just can/should be  
improved.

Also, the mmaping should create a temp file, extend it and then
mmap. This way you avoid consuming the system swap. I do not know
if this is/could-be an issue later on.
