Cool! Would be interesting to understand how to multithreading works? Is it just the "easy" parts or actual operations related to the world as well?

Currently Pumpkin has not much multi-threading but we want to go all in. There is already a good structure for multi-threading, We want to make everything multi-threaded what benefits from it

IMO chuck generation is a great candidate for mutlithreading. Keeping it off the main thread would already be a huge improvement.
