概要

パイプのバッファはいっぱいになるとwriteをブロックする。マニュアルの該当箇所を示す。 

man "pipe(7)" | grep -A 7 "Pipe capacity"

Pipe capacity
    A  pipe  has  a limited capacity.  If the pipe is full, then a write(2)
    will block or fail, depending on whether the  O_NONBLOCK  flag  is  set
    (see  below).   Different implementations have different limits for the
    pipe capacity.  Applications should not rely on a particular  capacity:
    an  application  should  be designed so that a reading process consumes
    data as soon as it is available, so that a writing process does not re‐
    main blocked.
