It’s a little foggy now but I think I had a dynamic array in a class which was being passed around some functions or the class (with the dynamic array) was in a record which was being passed around some functions. I think this was happening within tight loops also.

Bottom line is if the that thread lock function does anything expensive then passing around dynamic arrays within tight loops could be a deal breaker unless you could manually declare a dynamic array as not thread safe.
