scenario is this. main thread starts a pool of threads to do work. the result of all threads are combined together to form a big result set and returned. however, i'm envisioning that if 1 thread fails, the thread join is still waiting for the 9 other threads to complete before throwing an error. is there a way that once one thread fails, immediately throw, ignoring the 9 other threads?
