also, on the same box a similar C program (posted below) has no problem
starting 5000+ threads.
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/time.h>
#include <pthread.h>
void *
run (void *arg) {
sleep(1000);
}
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
int j;
pthread_t tid;
int num_threads = atoi(argv[1]);
for (j=0; j < num_threads; j++) {
pthread_create (&tid, NULL, run, NULL);
printf("created thread %d\n",j);
fflush(stdout);
}
sleep(1000);
}
