Yes, I agree with you there. That's what I myself usually do in fact.

I was referring to where the OP said:
"but would it be safe, given the fact that sum and count are bound to some
textFields/progressIndicator"
And presumably it would not be as the instance variables referred to were
being mutated in a secondary thread. Not my area of expertise though, I
have to say. Not in Cocoa anyway. I am used to a more robust threading
model.
