This behavior would be consistent with what I read about named pipes in Gnu/Linux in some general book ("Zrozumieć programowanie" by Gynvael Coldwind) about OSes from programmer's perspective. There were some buffer in kernel. When reader is not reading and writer is writing, buffer becomes full and writing is not completed.
