I'm sorry but I don't understand what you are talking about. In this article, there is nothing about multithreaded rules evaluation. It just says that the Phreak algorithm is designed for thread safety and future multicore processors exploitation. It doesn't mean that it is already multithreaded. Moreover I tested my appliciation with and without multithreaded sessions (I am using Drools 6.0.1.Final) and I noted a faster execution in the multithreaded one.

Hi maxime,

I do not remember if use drools 6 or drools 5. If you using drools 6.
Phreaks algorithm use multi threading according to use 'from
accummulate' far i understand here:
http://planet.jboss.org/post/drools_6_performance_with_the_phreak_algorithm

Instead to put a thread by ksession here rules evaluation are
multi-threaded.
