While I suppose you could mangle your way through it multi-process, it seems like a bastardization of the model.

That kind of sounds like you're nitpicking over an implementation detail. Which brings me back to my original confusion. If I have an interface that allows me to articulate concurrent tasks, I don't see the difference between threads, processes, or separate machines.

Again, this is assuming we're not in a resource constrained environment, and we're not doing something so processor heavy that it really should be compiled.
