Async I/O and blocking

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

I cannot find (even on google groups) a discussion thread a while back where someone gave
a reference to an article describing when asynchronous I/O is actually blocking.
Conditions such as appending to a file were among the reasons. I'm having trouble
remembering appropriate keywords that might have appeared in the article, and my attempts
have been futile. Anyone remember the article referenced?
thanks
