Hmmm. Some systems are limited by kernel thread limits.
My box only supports around 500 threads/processes.
Ocaml (bytecode) can run without kernel support:
"Programs that use VM-level threads must be compiled with
the -vmthread option to ocamlc (see chapter 8), and be linked as follows:
ocamlc -vmthread other options threads.cma other files"
Hmm. Anyone know if Python can run without rebuilding
for VM threads only? Java?
