Have they announced any attempts to refactor some of the heavy algorithms like pathfinding to take advantage of more than one CPU thread?

It appears so:

there is now a(n experimental) multithreading option in the game settings that makes the game even faster!

Looking forward to that. My game died an FPS death on top hardware. DFHack couldn't save it. Couldn't bring myself to invest again yet.

Same here. I really want to play fortress mode again; but, FPS death prevents me from enacting my vision. :)
