So a Mill CPU can never do shared-memory process parallelization? Two or more processes accessing the same memory could be a hazard. Seems like it would suffer the same issue IA-64 has with parallelism. However, the conveyor belt analogy simplifies register spilling & related issues.

Why not? The caches will still be coherent.

Only if you are crazy enough to share stacks in which case you deserve what you get.
