Are there any advantages to doing a stalling join? It seems to generally be less efficient than using a greedy policy.

@neonachronism I think the main problem would be is the ID of the thread matters after the rejoin, you are not guaranteed which thread that will be with the greedy method. I am having a difficult time imagining a scenario where this would actually matter though.
