Everything I've read or used suggests to me that threading+tkinter is a 
dangerous combination.

Mainly because tkinter already has an event loop, so when you start mixing 
threads things tend to go sideways.

Instead what you'll want to do is put processing in the .after or 
.after_idle callbacks - just make sure that whatever is doing is quick (or 
can do a portion of the activity quickly).
