Are you thinking in implementing threads as : 1.- "Smalltalk Spaces" (implementation of connectable Virtual Machines each with its own Interpreter+GC+ClassHierarchy+ObjectArea+...) ? 2.- processes attachables to native threads of execution ?
First approach can be more powerful, and it can be interesting for defining a new way to break our monolithic image.

I didn't actually read this thread but I realized that I had something applicable on my bookshelf. Has the book "The Design and Implementation of ConcurrentSmalltalk" by Yasuhiko Yokote come up? There are some neat architectural ideas that come up in it that might be applicable towards this thread.

Hi Ryan,
Could you please provide an ISBN or publisher for that?
