Maybe no one has a real answer for you :) From my experience, if you're running ActiveRecord code, you could have a problem. I tried to use active record on non controller threads (even using with_connection) and it didn't work. If you're not using ActiveRecord, it shoudn't be an issue, just don't forget that the MRI isn't really concurrent and you'll just get real concurrency running on JRuby.
