That's normal behavior; threads are scheduled by the OS. In your case, the thread fills the buffer faster then its timeslice expires, so you see buffer being filled/emptied in "batches". If you want them to be interleaved, lower the buffer size or try running on an SMP machine.
Or put a usleep(0) in the thread to force the timeslice to expire? IIRC.
