Modern OCaml multithreading is still a couple years away It's been a couple of years away for the last 10 years.

  I know, and I hate sharing "it's coming soon" stories for that reason. But the recent multicore progress-update does seem well conceived, and so personally I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt. :)

    For the record, the current story is that they are merging some multicore things into 4.08, and it will only be available as an "experimental" feature. So even after it is in the compiler, it will be a couple more revisions before it is fully accepted.
