Some developers treat me as dinosaur because I use threads in place of

parallelism.
Huh, ok, but why parallelism is better and how to do it with fpc ?
a nice article I've found long ago when I was researching the same
topic "Threading/Concurrency vs. Parallelism" is the following :
http://tutorials.jenkov.com/java-concurrency/concurrency-vs-parallelism.html
and I tried the multithreadprocslaz package in Lazarus :
http://wiki.freepascal.org/Parallel_procedures
Showing nicely that parallelism in a single process implies threads.
I would not pay too much attention to what these developers are saying.
