Hey folks. I am using Makie to create animations of 2D or 3D data. I am wondering if there is a convenient way to use threads to parallelize the record feature, similar to using a threaded map/call in python?

some backend libraries (for example GR which used by Plots.jl) has internal states, so it’s not completely trivial to multi-threading, but I imagine Makie is most likely to pull it off
