In my experience, CoreImage is not thread safe. I could probably dig up the 
details if necessary, but the gist is that we were experiencing 
CoreImage-related crashes when running off the main thread. Moving to the main 
thread fixed the crashes.

Unfortunately, I'm not aware of any documentation regarding CoreImage thread 
safety.
