With the quantity of information you give us, we can only guess, but you
probably use a linuxthreads based libc, so:
- each thread appears as an entry in ps output
- there is a "manager" thread called when creating the first thread.

So, 483 is probably the main thread, 484 the manager thread, 485 is the
"mytask" thread.

Still guessing, I think you are confusing 2 + N with 3 * N, because you
only tested with N == 1.
