06:08 <FromGitter> <foxxx0> hi, I have a small applications where the main loop receives status-updates from a bunch of threads over a common communication channel. is there way to "collect" these updates in batches combined with a deadline? I.e. on a `Channel#receive` it will collect further updates (over the same Channel) for something like 50-100ms and after that timestamp then do something, even if no further update occured within the

17:26 <FromGitter> <riffraff169> i kind of want to test the incremental bootstrap build, just to see what it is like
