I found some bugs and commented on the original pull request for the pthread support.
https://github.com/kripken/emscripten/pull/3266 https://github.com/kripken/emscripten/pull/3266.
In my opinion, the pthread support itself works well now. But the biggest problem of the implementation is that SharedArrayBuffer, the pthread support calls for, is implemented only in Firefox currently.
One of the purpose to use emscripten is made an application cross-platform web application. You can get a "non-webbish" code runs only in Firefox with pthread-supported emscripten as of now.
I'm looking forward to other browsers with SharedArrayBuffer support, especially Mobile Safari.

- bobajeff 11y agoI'm pretty sure it's also behind a flag and will remain so until the spec is stable enough that it won't change when it becomes standard (likely EcmaScript 2017).
