> Currently it is non-blocking in case of credit-based flow control (default), however for \{{SpilledBufferOrEventSequence}} it is blocking on reading from file. We might want to consider reimplementing it to be non blocking with {{CompletableFuture<?> isAvailable()}} method.
>  
> Otherwise we will block mailbox processing for the duration of reading from file - for example we will block processing time timers and potentially in the future network flushes.
>  
> This is not a high priority change, since it affects non-default configuration option AND at the moment only processing time timers are planned to be moved to the mailbox for 1.9.
