This page discusses both ASSIMPs scalability in threaded environments and the precautions to be taken in order to use it from multiple threads concurrently.
The library can be accessed by multiple threads simultaneously, as long as the following prerequisites are fulfilled:
Multiple concurrent imports may or may not be beneficial, however. For certain file formats in conjunction with little or no post processing IO times tend to be the performance bottleneck. Intense post processing together with 'slow' file formats like X or Collada might scale well with multiple concurrent imports.
Internal multi-threading is not currently implemented.
