Can I run multiple threads on the same heroku processor (python)?

Does the module work threadingwhen starting one dyno on heroku? eg:

import threading
import time
import random


def foo(x, s):    
    time.sleep(s)
    print ("%s %s %s" % (threading.current_thread(), x, s))

for x in range(4):
    threading.Thread(target=foo, args=(x, random.random())).start()

should return something like ...

$ python3 mythread.py
<Thread(Thread-3, started 123145318068224)> 2 0.27166873449907303
<Thread(Thread-4, started 123145323323392)> 3 0.5510182055055494
<Thread(Thread-1, started 123145307557888)> 0 0.642366815814484
<Thread(Thread-2, started 123145312813056)> 1 0.8985126103340428

It?

Yes. This works fine =) Just tested on the latest version of Python 3. You can easily test this on Heroku yourself.

Heroku speakers use virtual processor cores, but threads still work fine.

EDIT : Here are my Heroku magazines
