Threads are not deprecated. Threads are fully supported. The docs say that threads are discouraged. When pressed for an explanation, the reason given for that message was that ...threads are hard and the people in some IRC channel don't want to answer questions about threads? Ok, that might not be exactly right, but the answer I got back was clear a mud. Read it for yourself. What's relevant to me is this:
There's also a performance penalty to adding thread support to a Perl, but that penalty applies to whether you use threads or not, and it's pretty common for the system perl to have thread support, so you're probably already suffering from that penalty.
