[vtkusers] Are VTK Objects Thread-Safe ?

[David E DeMarle]

That is still accurate.

The only recent work towards multithreaded VTK I know of that has made
it back into VTK is Huy Vo's threaded streaming pipeline.
That manages filters and pipeline segments to work together in a
multithreaded fashion, not individual vtkObjects per se.

See:

and
