| # FIFO |

| ## NAME |
| |
| FIFO - first-in first-out interprocess queue |
| |
| ## SYNOPSIS |
| |
| FIFOs are intended to be the control plane for shared memory |
| transports. Their read and write operations are more efficient than |
| [sockets](socket.md) or [channels](channel.md), but there are severe |
| restrictions on the size of elements and buffers. |
