We still encountered a gc_sweep in our use of Ruby 1.8 on Linux (v8).

Yes, there are several (Ruby) threads working during this gc_sweep.

I don't like the API.

Since there are many ways to control behavior, "first proc argument is
for progress bar" is not intuitive.

How about another API?
open(name, :progress_proc => lambda {|pos| ... })

open-uri emulates usual file instead of pipe.
I think it should be default at least.

There are many subtle difference between file and pipe:
* various exception by network problem may be raised at (first) read
  time instead of open time.
* pipe is unseekable.
* cannot get actual file size for pipe. (Content-Length may be invalid)
* cannot support rw mode.
* etc.

However optional pipe emulation mode is acceptable, maybe.
