I run with 512MB ram + 1G swap. According to gkrellm, it never even 
went into swap, but just ran in the 512M.  (Besides, we're running
Java with a max heap size set to well below that... So there's something
very strange going on.)

Gag! I'll try to look at that. Something is *seriously* wrong there.  I'm
having a hard imagining where 1000 threads could be coming from!

Out of curiousity... Do you see the same kind of out-of-control thread
stuff running from the command line? Or is it just when run from the unittest
framework? 

(Unfortunately, I'm home with the baby today, so I'm probably
not going to have any uninterrupted time to try to do experiments
like this. If you happen to have time, I'd really like to see the results.
If not, they'll just have to wait a day or two until I have some clear
work time.)
