Multiplexed IO - Win32 style

(Personally, haven't had much experience with this yet)
The "fastest" of the lot, but easily foot-destructive
Reads and writes are registered and callbacks are called at completion
Buffers are passed with read/write calls which must(!) stay static during the IO completion
Arrays of buffers can be passed rather than a single one
For disk IO, these arrays can reference different file blocks
