running on windows xp
python 2.4.3
eclipse 3.2 + pydev 1.2.2 (just upgraded ;-)

debugging the attached script results in an explosion of threads after a while.
when suspending the debug-session I get the following in the console:
...
could not find thread 10958000
could not find thread 10958928
could not find thread 10644272
could not find thread 10645072
could not find thread 10644080
could not find thread 10642896
could not find thread 10644464
could not find thread 10645040
...

I don't know for if this is the pydev debugger, or python itself that does not
clean up the threads.
If I run the program on the console and look at the amount of threads (probably
only the running threads) in taskmanager, it is not growing.
If you think this is a bug in pydev or python, I'll file it as such.

import threading
import time

class Ping(threading.Thread):
    def __init__(self):
        threading.Thread.__init__(self)
        
        # self start the thread
        self.start()
    
    def run(self):
        time.sleep(0.1)

def main():
    TASKS = 8

    while(True):
        getters = []
        for x in range(TASKS):
            getter = Ping()
            getters.append(getter)
        
        # wait for all the getters to finish
        for getter in getters:
            getter.join()
        

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()
