I'm not sure what you're hopes were based on, but AFAIK there are no
multithreading additions for v5 or Grasshopper.  Doesn't really matter
what kind of system you have as its something that requires the
attention of the Rhino developers and David.  Last I asked (many
months ago), David said that he attempted to try out some
multithreading with GH, but had a lot of problems managing threads and
a number of issues with some SDK functions not being thread safe.
Unfortunately the response from McNeel on multithreading has been
practically non-existent with the only "official" word being that
"none of the functions in Rhino lend themselves to
multithreading" (loose quote there).  I personally don't buy that, but
I'm just a lay person and that's really a discussion for another
thread.

Best,
Damien
