3.8.11-2 - 2026-06-10

Streaming deadlock with korapxmltool on large corpora containing many small documents (e.g. Wikipedia article/discussion dumps), which manifested as near-idle CPU and a progress bar frozen at 0 for hours. The pipe now honors korapxmltool's # eot/# eof document-delimiter protocol: each document is annotated, emitted, and flushed immediately, so the worker pool can deliver results and release its bounded in-flight buffer slots. Previously # eot/ # eof were swallowed as CoNLL-U comments, output was block-buffered with no flush, and nothing was delivered until the process exited at stdin EOF — which deadlocked once the in-flight buffer filled. Inputs without protocol markers (a CoNLL-U file piped in directly) are still processed in SPACY_CHUNK_SIZE-bounded blocks and now stream their output.
