Hi Dejan,

Thanks for a quick reply.

Setting the name property is not reflecting in the OS level. May 
be it is just used only at the object level?

After setting the thread name, I would like to see the it 
reflect, for instance, in the output of `top` command. You can 
press H in top to toggle threads and see their names there.

Cheers.
