Description
What is the best way to wait behind multiple queues and being notified when a message is coming from any of them?
Actually I want something like select (in linux sockets or go programming language for channels).
What I am doing now is iterating over all of them and use the non-blocking api try_dequeue, but this solution is busy wait and not efficient.
