 * Check what happens performance-wise if instead to create threads again and again the same threads are reused forever. Note: this requires a way to disable this clients in the child, but waiting for empty new jobs queue can be enough.
 * Sets of integers are slow to load, for a number of reasons. Fix it. (use slow_sets.rdb file for debugging).
