[MacRuby-devel] Questions about Threads

Hi folks,

Could someone shed a little light on how threads work in MacRuby? For  
example, if I do this:

Thread.new do
   10.times do
     puts "Hi"
     sleep 2
   end
end

Does this run as a NSThread instance? Also does the MacRuby runtime  
have the Global Interpreter Lock or are MacRuby threads basically  
NSThreads?

Thanks!
