I used a semaphore to block when the queue and threads are full.  Even
with 5 threads it is way faster than before.

I see triples
finishing a
starting b
submitting c

pause

It does not dilly dally recycling a thread.

The big problem is the docs. They are aimed at advanced users. They
expect you to already understand the basic stuff.  I feel irritation
about the way you have kludge in blocking.  What were they thinking?
It is like selling a car without wheels.

For me, the appeal of computer programming is that
even though I am quite a klutz,
I can still produce something, in a sense
perfect, because the computer gives me as many
chances as I please to get it right.
