Assumming you've tried the page attribute I mentioned in my previous
post, there's not much to suggest, but to marshal all calls to the
component's creator thread. One thing I can't know is whether the
component is stateless or statelfull (and whether it's cheap or
expensive to create), and whether you can simply create it every time
and on any thread and use it there.

Cheers,
Stoyan
