However, parallel programming is difficult. As far as I know, as we all move towards functional programming we won't have to worry too much about it as it gets taken care of for us. Also, in Android and Java itself there are really good apis that shield us from the hard stuff, there's no need to work with threads directly. I haven't come across an equivalent in Objective-C... On this topic (sort of), this is an interesting article I read the other day where they took a different approach: http://martinfowler.com/articles/lmax.html "In fact they ended up by doing all the business logic for their platform: all trades, from all customers, in all markets - on a single thread. A thread that will process 6 million orders per second using commodity hardware." -- Andrew Welch http://andrewjwelch.com
