high load & poor interactivity on fast thread creation

Hello,

When creating a lot of Java threads per second linux slows down to a
crawl. I don't think this happens on NT, probably because NT doesn't
create new threads as fast as Linux does.

Is there a way (setting ?) to solve this problem ? Rate-limit the number
of threads created ? The problem occurred on linux 2.2, IBM Java 1.1.8.

Thanks,

                                                        Arnaud
