Oh hell!!! Now I'm scared! Why did nobody tell me before? Is that common with all GUI toolkits?

The problem is: I'm no (good) thread programmer and for what I've read in here it seems that Gtk+ wasn't design to be used with threads and there will be much trouble ahead. Am I right? And the other thing is: it was planned that the calculations stop with the click of a button (it's a continuos online calculation/data processing) but thus the button is not clickable under heavy system load there has to be another way around. Isn't there a way to shortly stop calculations (for a necessary minimum of time) and let the GUI gather possible events? Could this work this way somehow? Any suggestions? Every idea is welcome. Thanks again!
