I think in addition to pros/cons, an important question is:
How has threading influenced other DBMS's? I know MySQL uses threading, at 
least in the development version; how much has it helped? Is the utility of a 
database based partly on the presence of threading? Take Oracle, MsSQL, and 
others; which have threading and which seem to gain from threading?

I don't follow the other DB's as closely, so I don't know the answers.

I suspect that looking at other databases will give us a clue about the 
magnitude of the pros, rather than just the areas of influence.
