What is your sleep time settings? I can get to 
leafy at chihiro:~/tmp$ java TestThreads 50000 10
TestThreads: successfully fired 50000 threads
TestThreads: waited 10 milliseconds for all threads to complete

But my box is a P4-1.8G with 256MB RAM, lengthing the sleeptime to 10,000 ms 
also works, but drags my box down to nearly a halt.
