Threads that should be finished for 3 seconds can't be finished for 15 minutes.
It looks as clock() wrapped around. From clock (3) manpage:
Note that the time can wrap around. On a 32-bit system where
CLOCKS_PER_SEC equals 1000000 this function will return the same value
approximately every 72 minutes.
The solution is to use monotonic() (time() on older releases) instead of
clock().
