theres a race condition if 2 applications are run and one tries to load an
index that hasnt been finished yet.
this risk can be avoided by seeking back once its all finished and setting
some flag at the begin.
this could still leave a issue with 2 applications trying to write the same
index at the same time, this needs O_EXCL to be passed to open() and thus
requires a bit of api extension to pass this through
