Well, it doesn't necessarily, but that's easiest a lot of the time.

I should try to understand Twisted better one of these days, but it's
much more confusing than threads.  Also, the function I want to
parallelize does blocking operations (database lookups), so in Twisted
I'd have to figure out some way to do them asynchronously.
