Let's cut to the chase here:  are you creating detached threads?  Can
this work in your environment?  Doing this would probably allow you to
create a lot more threads.

Hint:  pthread_attr_setdetachstate(&attrs, PTHREAD_CREATE_DETACHED);

Note: if you have to create *a lot* of threads all the time, it might
      be worthwhile to create your own thread-pool.
