So, what happens to the $thread variable in each iteration of the loop? 
Does it go out of scope and get destroyed? Normally, if something else 
references $thread, it does not get destroyed. But in this case, what 
references $thread? I'm not sure.

The code I've written code might look like this:

for ($i=1;$i<255;$i++) {
  $host="10.10.10."."$i";
  push @threads, threads->create(threads,subping($host));
}

Then somewhere else:

foreach my $thread (@threads) {
  $thread->join();
}
