I'd like like several tasks to share an unpacked array of a definite discri=
minant record type.

1.) Is this possible?

2.) Do I need any kind of synchronization if I can guarantee that every tas=
k can only write and read to a different area (different range of indices) =
in the array?

Performance matters a lot in this case, which is why I would prefer not to =
use a protected object or any other synchronization mechanism. I can't imag=
ine how a problem could occur if every task only accesses his own part of t=
he array, but perhaps there is still one?
