Hi -
When should the multi-threaded version of Cog be used vs the single threaded version? Is either one more stable or performant, etc?
The MT of Cog is only for FFI as much as I understand. The VM itself continues to be a green thread, even with CogMT. So no, there is not performance change, only in FFI. That being said, I never hear someone apart from Eliot successfully using CogMT with real multithreaded FFI. There may be some work still to do before you can use it.
Thanks
