Is accessing different key/value pairs in associative array simultaneously multi-cpu safe?

Question

From Brendan's post: DTrace variable types, I know accessing associative array simultaneously isn't multi-cpu safe.Is accessing different key/value pairs in associative array simultaneously multi-cpu safe? Or it is also not multi-cpu safe.

Answer 1
