Alternatively, Nagios could leave the pipe here and have nsca open the
file in non-blocking read-write - it will then be able to fill up the
pipe and Nagios will get the queued commands when it starts up. On write
failures (pipe full) the dump file could be used. This would be the
preferred method to avoid data loss.

That's pretty much the same as host/service_perfdata_file_mode=p in
Nagios 3 with a daemon like OCP_Daemon to get the data, but the other
way round.
