Does your CAS Consumer have the default of false for multipleDeploymentAllowed? Usually only the annotator pipeline is run in multiple threads ... the CPE runs a single-threaded Collection Reader that feeds the multiple replicated pipelines which all feed into a single-threaded CAS Consumer. I think you can run multiple CAS Consumers but then you are resposible for serializing access to your shared output resources.
Perhaps you could post the full trace of your exception. Burn.
