What do you mean by doesn't exit, the resources for threads in Mac OS X
are kept around so that they can be reused, create threads is time
consuming.

I've done a little test with the AutoTheading feature that Quartz does
when running a NSProgressIndicator.
When creating a NSProgressIndicator cirlce(wheel?) and sending the
startAnimation:self it spawns a thread for itself. OK, this is great,
it won't block the GUI, but wait after sending the stopAnimation:self
to the same NSProgressIndicator it stops as it is supposed to do but
the thead doesn't exit and waits until the application exits. Doesn't
this waste resources?
