Very high overhead in multithreaded applicati

We are using a TrackIR4 with the OptiTrack SDK.
When calling OptiTrack API functions from a multithreaded application (COINIT_MULTITHREADED), there is an enormous overhead for every call. So large that we've been forced to write a single-threaded application to talk to control the camera and pass the information on to the main application.
