Did you instrument your code to verify that this is indeed the case? This would definitely be the first thing to do: since it would verify whether what you are saying is happening is correct. I would generally say that I rarely see duplicated onCreates unless your activity is clearly destroyed: but I have noticed cases of it before. (However, fixing the orientation does help..)
The fact there would be two "physics threads" running seems strange to me, since I usually segment things as much as possible. (By the way, you should probably mediate access to the objects you're updating by acquiring a lock for them: that's the "typical solution" to the kind of problem you present here.)
