It's better not to mention this. I used to work for a database vendor with a process model (i.e. like postgres), and we could still beat the opposition who had a threaded model. The bottom line is that thread/process isn't that important. We even used to beat the opposition in number of databases/connections, by a huge margin. It's an implementation detail. Don't confuse people by throwing it up.
