I found and read that doc as well, but I guess i was still a bit
confused due to all the magic happening behind the scenes. Ill do some
tests and report back.

enabling multithreaded opengl make any sense if I start to push my

I don't know of any appropriate cases where this would help
performance, but I've seen a few instances where it adversely
affected performance in a negative way (i.e. 60fps compositions
dropping to 20fps or worse). As with all optimization, be sure to
profile exhaustively to make sure what you're doing actually helps
rather than hinders.
When/If you find where this option helps, please let me know; I'm
curious about where it's appropriate as well (in more concrete ways
than the doc outlines) :)
