Re: multiple thread applications

Since user level threads are possible (some Java runtimes use it) it might be rather difficult to distinguish whether a given implementation uses something like threads or not.

But one example is quite obvious: you will never be able to utilize more than one logical CPU core with one application instance without native threads.
