Introduce Dirty Arbiters - a separate process pool for executing long-running, blocking operations (AI model loading, heavy computation) without blocking HTTP workers. Inspired by Erlang's dirty schedulers. Key features: - Completely separate from HTTP workers - can be killed/restarted independently - Stateful - loaded resources persist in dirty worker memory - Message-passing IPC via Unix sockets with JSON serialization - Explicit execute() API from HTTP workers - Asyncio-based for clean concurrent handling Architecture: - DirtyArbiter: manages the dirty worker pool, routes requests - DirtyWorker: executes functions, maintains state, handles requests - DirtyClient: sync/async API for HTTP workers to call dirty apps - DirtyProtocol: length-prefixed JSON messages over Unix sockets - DirtyApp: base class for dirty applications Configuration options: - dirty_apps: list of import paths for dirty applications - dirty_workers: number of dirty workers (default: 0) - dirty_timeout: task timeout in seconds (default: 300) - dirty_graceful_timeout: shutdown timeout (default: 30) Lifecycle hooks: - on_dirty_starting(arbiter) - dirty_post_fork(arbiter, worker) - dirty_worker_init(worker) - dirty_worker_exit(arbiter, worker) Includes comprehensive test suite with 164 tests covering: - Protocol encoding/decoding - Worker and arbiter lifecycle - Client sync/async APIs - Signal handling - Error handling and timeouts - Integration tests
