Muds Compute bound or IO bound...

Has anyone thought about to what extent muds (such as circles) .. are
compute bound and IO bound? .. (i'd think they are far more IO bound that
computer bound... due to net lag etc..) ..

.. I ask this because of another question .. has anyone ever thought of
making circle (or their own driver) multithreaded? .. to what extent do
you think the mud would benefit.. (specially on a MP box..  with a MP
operating system.. )
