Bug Description
Users cannot create more than ~2500 containers due to setMaxThreads being set too low in golang. Typically each container uses ~4 pthreads. Many users may want to create a high number of containers, however that is not possible since the current max default in golang is 10,000 pthreads (https:/
This has been addressed upstream in Docker v1.11:

which sets the golang thread limit to 90% of /proc/sys/
Would it be possible for Ubuntu 16.04 to include this fix in the v1.10 docker binaries?
