That depends on the filesystem.

If the filesystem can handle concurrent requests, then the FUSE kernel
module and library will be able supply the filesystem with (a limited
number of) concurrent requests, in the form of separate threads.

Otherwise the library must be told to run in single-thread mode.

That would be very nice.  If the slides could be converted to html,
they could be made available from the FUSE homepage.
