This naive program creates 10000 threads. More than 2000 of them are not
executed completely:

-----
import thread, time

cnt_a = cnt_b = 0
def test():
    global cnt_a, cnt_b
    time.sleep(1)
    cnt_a += 1
    time.sleep(1)
    cnt_b += 1

i = 10000
while i:
    i -= 1
    thread.start_new_thread(test, ())

time.sleep(100)
print cnt_a, cnt_b
----

The program prints two different numbers not equal to 10000.
