[vtkusers] vkt and threading

[Cory Quammen]

Dejan,

If you can, it is not easy to get right. In general, you have to be very
careful when multithreading with VTK. While some parts of VTK are thread
safe, most are not.

In projects I've encountered, VTK runs in the main thread and run
potentially long-running processing tasks on other threads.

HTH,
Cory
