+Common issues
+-------------
+
+Multithreading
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Older SQLite versions had issues with sharing connections between threads.
+That's why the Python module disallows sharing connections and cursors between
+threads. If you still try to do so, you will get an exception at runtime.
+
+The only exception is calling the :meth:`~Connection.interrupt` method, which
+only makes sense to call from a different thread.
