umm... pretty much all of it.
If you're allocating all the objects you deal with inside your
components, you probably aren't faced with many issues, but any time
you start considering anything that is shared, you have to consider
the fact that java is natively multi-threaded, and there are always
other threads running, even if you're not concurrently handling
requests.
For instance, if you always instantiate a formatter inside your
component and that thread is the only one that know about it, you
should be fine. However, if you're sharing an instance (usually for
performance reasons), you need to be aware of the fact that it could
be called from multiple places at the same time.

I'm not quite shure in what parts of WO programming it is vital to be

I'm sure Pierre could answer this better than anyone else, but I
always lock
NSTimestampFormatter when used in multi-threaded situations...

Also note that unlike NSTimestampFormatter, SimpleDateFormat is
not thread

thread
safe.
