Doesn't work, really. It will no longer be possible to send a signal to
an idle backend. The idle backend will be blocking on recv(), that's how
it works. So unless we can get around that somehow, it's a non-starter I
think.
I doubt there will be much performance difference, as you hav eto hit
the kernel anyway (in the recv/send call). But that part is just a guess
:-)
