It depends on the problem domain - in many cases you do know whether a
task will take some time, for example, when it runs a database query or
does disk I/O.
Often you can delay the decision on whether to pass or not until you know,
too.
If you truly don't know, then running multiple processes is best, followed by
multiple threads running their own event loop, followed by sharing. Well,
*usually*.
