+// An EffectChain is the largest basic entity in Movit; it contains everything
+// needed to connects a series of effects, from inputs to outputs, and render
+// them. Generally you set up your effect chain once and then call its render
+// functions once per frame; setting one up can be relatively expensive,
+// but rendering is fast.
+//
+// Threading considerations: EffectChain is “thread-compatible”; you can use
+// different EffectChains in multiple threads at the same time (assuming the
+// threads do not use the same OpenGL context, but this is a good idea anyway),
+// but you may not use one EffectChain from multiple threads simultaneously.
+// You _are_ allowed to use one EffectChain from multiple threads as long as
+// you only use it from one at a time (possibly by doing your own locking),
+// but if so, the threads' contexts need to be set up to share resources, since
+// the EffectChain holds textures and other OpenGL objects that are tied to the
+// context.
