What kernel version are you using? 2.2.x has a limit of around 512 threads total for the system, and roughly 256 max for each user (512/2).
To change edit include/linux/tasks.h Change NR_TASKS and MAX_TASKS_PER_USER appropriately. Then recompile and install your kernel. Do a search on google for the 'volcano' benchmarks. IIRC they have a section on how to tune linux for that type of load.
