I suppose you are talking about kernel-level POSIX-compatible threads
included in the current glibc2 used by the Linux kernel.
In that case you cannot change the timeslice, which is the default
Linux process timeslice. The Linux scheduler handle each thread almost
like an usual process.

No.

Same than usual processes time-slice, which depends on your system
hardware (correct me if I'm wrong there).
If you need that level of granularity, I suggest you to switch to a
real-time modified Linux kernel. But that would probably mean
redesigning your application heavily.
Hope it helps,
