1184This is useful when you allow a large number of threads (e.g. 100 or 1000)
1185to allow for extremely high load situations, but want to free resources
1186under normal circumstances (1000 threads can easily consume 30MB of RAM).

1188The default is probably ok in most situations, especially if thread
1189creation is fast. If thread creation is very slow on your system you might
1190want to use larger values.
