Could also be a race condition/timing issue with your thread
synchronization.  The first time you run the program afer a full rebuild,
the OS has probably not cached any pages of your application from the disk
into memory.  The second time you run, the program will probably load and
start running much quicker, most likely causing your threads to switch
contexts at different places than they did during the first run.
