Hrm. Actually, that's perfectly normal.

HOWEVER, would it make sense to start reaping unused threads? Like,
have a parameter, something like maxIdleThreads, so that if a thread
is reclaim()'d and there are already maxIdleThreads around, go ahead
and kill it.

There's like a resource-performance tradeoff, of course...
