thread safe?

[Lonnie Cumberland]

Hello All,

I was wondering if someone could please tell me if Wine is thread safe?

That is, I am wondering if is possible to be running multiple Windows
applications under wine at the same time without much degradation of the
performance of the system?

Thanks in advance,
Lonnie

And a related question: is Wine SMP-safe?  Will it work properly
on SMP systems?

I've had no known problems on my dual cpu box,
so I'd assume that wine is at least supposed to be SMP-safe.
since windows is threadsafe, I'd assume wine would have to be.
