Since callbacks are invoked to perform all reading/writing that work will always take place in threads controlled by the async provider, right?  Is there any standard way to control how many threads are in use?  To set the thread type (daemon, non-daemon)?  To set the thread names?

[ moving to nio-discuss (if okay with you) as there are folks interested 
in this area that don't subscribe to the -dev mailing list ]

The class to check out is AsynchronousChannelGroup. There you will see 
how to configure the ThreadFactory, number of threads, etc. If you see 
anything missing or have comments please let us know.
