The threads are pooled and your job is queued for execution. When and on which thread that happens is beyond your control, nor is it deterministic. It may happen (almost) immediately or sometime later when the other pending jobs have been processed. What you want is to kill a thread you don't own - you haven't started, you don't manage and you don't know when or how it finishes. Hence Thiago's advice - use QThread if you really *must* kill it.
