Thanks, Rene!

Someone might want to update the documentation to make this clearer.
The following document seems to indicate otherwise:

http://struts.apache.org/2.x/docs/writing-interceptors.html

Thread Safety
        Interceptors must be thread-safe!

A Struts 2 Action instance is created for every request and do not need
to be thread-safe. Conversely, Interceptors are shared between requests
and must be thread-safe.

Ken,

there is no problem at all since s2 interceptor instances, as well as
action instances, are created per ActionInvokation, which means they are
always operated in a single thread.

Regards,
Rene
