To be perfectly honest, I'm still trying to familiarize myself with the code sufficiently well so that I can tell which variables need to be per-thread and which are shared (and, in turn, which of these need to be protected from concurrent access). So, in short, I'm not dealing with the issue (and, hence, it is only "running" in the very loosest sense of the word). Unfortunately, I'm not yet even in a position to propose a reasonable model, let alone one that'd play well with the existing code base. Perhaps some time soon, hopefully... (I really want to get involved in this.)
