That link is for a multiprocessor on a chip, it doesn't say what concurrency you can get from _1_ forth program (my guess is 1 since colorforth is stack based with 2 stacks for programs+data). I will assume you can run forth on each chip (now what would you do with them?).

Forth is a stack-based language. I would guess this limits concurrency to 1 in all cases. It is nice for embedded single-threaded code, but is an OS a realistic target?
