There are generally speaking always at least a couple of threads (I
think 3 is correct), but how 'ps' displays processes vs threads is very
system dependant.  On the sarge machine, I think either of ps -elF or 
ps axH will show you the threads as seperate LWP ids.

As for the rest, I will defer to others for now.
