in reply to Things you need to know before programming Perl ithreads

Does anything changed here in 12 years? Any optimizations and improvements?

Would be really nice to update post at least with statement that everything is up to current date.

    There have been bugfixes and small optimizations, but the basic mechanism still stands, as far as I know.

    I'm interesting in subject too.
    From what I've read it's look the same: Perl uses threads like processes. So you have "true" multiprocessing, but have "slow" shared variable plus extra memory use.
