You are ranting a bit quickly, I find. Such a thing partially covers existing practice for programming e.g on GPUs, where you have something like global memory that all PE can access, statically identified of some sort or malloced, and local memory that is restricted to PE and thus to the thread. I am personally not a great fan of CUDA but if one day they could map the new thread model on this, this would probably a big progress. Jens
