In my case they just mentioned it in passing, but not being able to DO it themselves, could not train us students. This was a good few years back, maybe its different now. Even now, Googling around for ANY info on multi threading brings up very thin pickings and a few lab experiment level code snippets. Nothing solid or useable. Mentoring of programmers is the key; sharing knowledge, not hiding it as a dark art. Ok, maybe hiding it to an extent, before ALL our freakin jobs go offshore to Bangla...
