     34  *
     35  * Schedules asynchronous I/O operations. #GIOScheduler integrates
     36  * into the main event loop (#GMainLoop) and may use threads if they
     37  * are available.

     39  * <para id="io-priority"><indexterm><primary>I/O priority</primary></indexterm>
     40  * Each I/O operation has a priority, and the scheduler uses the priorities
     41  * to determine the order in which operations are executed. They are
     42  * <emphasis>not</emphasis> used to determine system-wide I/O scheduling.
     43  * Priorities are integers, with lower numbers indicating higher priority.
     44  * It is recommended to choose priorities between %G_PRIORITY_LOW and
     45  * %G_PRIORITY_HIGH, with %G_PRIORITY_DEFAULT as a default.
