Subject: need for threads

a discussion of tcl threads came up in that newsgroup.

one of the posts stopped me cold. the msg boiled down to:

on a single non-ht cpu if your program can't do soemthnig while
waiting on a resource there's no real need for threaded code.

threading will actually slow down your program overall.
