Well, most popular interpreter-based languages have the same problem as Pike:

Dear Pike users and developers,
I wanted to ask whether there is any library implemented for Pike to
support concurrency or if it planed to do so as an embedded feature or
added package? I think the language has a great potential to be widely
used if such enhancements are done. I am

Hi!
What exactly do you mean by concurrency? Pike comes with a Thread
module, which works very nicely for I/O-bound operations; though if
you can get your head around it, single-threaded callback handling
works beautifully there.

Hi Chris,
Thank you for your comprehensive answer. Its good to know that Pike
supports such important features and I am actually very keen to discover
how mutex works in Pike. However, I guess concurrency was not in the main
focus when Pike was designed but it is still very good that it supports
