Great, thank you for the feedback!

No problem.

That's definitely a reasonable approach.

Ah good catch, that's always the problem when placing statements like
this in the doc at a place that has no chance for being revisited! I'll
remove it for -dev and 1.9. That was totally true at the time when 1.8
was released however, but now thread-specific issues are much less
common than other ones.

I consider that 1.8 is safe now regarding threads, however they're
suboptimal and the scalability isn't that great above ~4. I should
possibly revisit the statement there as well to reflect this.

Thanks!
