test_thread is slow because it runs two tests who each theoretically 
take 10 seconds (randomly calculated based on the number of threads 
being run for the test; ``random.random() * numtasks``).  We could 
either rewrite the test (test_dummy_thread was originally designed to 
replace it, but you didn't like the idea since test_thread had been 
around for so long and thus was stable) or lower the number of threads 
being run at a time to have it go faster.
