Quick Answer
Multithreading optimizations: use thread pools (avoid thread creation overhead), prefer lock-free structures (AtomicInteger, ConcurrentHashMap), minimize lock scope (hold locks for shortest time possible), use volatile for simple visibility (cheaper than synchronized), avoid false sharing (pad objects to cache line size), prefer immutable objects (zero sync cost), and profile before optimizing.
Answer
Use immutable objects for thread safety. Prefer concurrent collections and atomic variables. Minimize synchronized blocks. Use thread pools for efficient thread reuse.
