When running outside the webserver you can use the -processes switch
to make tclwebtest fork into several processes that run in
parallel. Within the webserver you might have to invent your own way
of making use of its multithreading capabilities. 

I don't know how callback would help in this case as that would mean
that you want the same instantiation of tclwebtest (e.g. a set of
initialised global variables etc.) to do several requests in parallel,
right? So when the callback fires tclwebtest should know which
currently running set of global variables to associate that with -
this is totally impossible with the current architecture.
