> It's going to be amazing to saturate all the cores on a big machine using simple threads instead of dealing with the massive overhead and complexity and bugs of using something like multiprocessing.

I'm saturating 192cpu / 1.5TBram machines with no headache and straightforward multiprocessing. I really don't see what multithreading will bring more.

What are these massive overheads / complexity / bugs you're talking about ?
