Gmond is single thread mode in 3.1.1.

Are there any versions of gmond with multithread archtecture?

For our use cases (gmond serves as repostory of resources), we do
prefer the multithread mode. There are three major functionality
within Gmond:
- collecting metric on local node
- receive metrics from other nodes
- server polling request
If we have 3 or more thread within Gmond, these functions will not
interfere with each other.

Since these functions will share some data structures, the question will be:
- How to decouple these functions?
- To what extent could we decouple these functions and their data?

We are currently using one independent thread within python module to
decouple collection metric from other two functions. Rewriting Gmond
is surely another option. If there are similar effort in the
direction, we'll save the efforts of re-inventing the wheels.

Any inputs will be welcomed.

Thanks,
Hang
