 * The event handler's execution should be treated as a barrier to all

 *
 * If a barrier is issued after sending a message which expects a reply, the
 * behavior is the same as described above. The receipt of a reply message will

 *
 * A barrier block can be useful for throttling resource consumption on the

 * that contain kernel resources (like file descriptors) which have a system-

 * immediately. If a connection has been canceled and still has outstanding
 * barriers, those barriers will be invoked as part of the connection's
 * unwinding process.
 *
