I reported this bug separately and solved it:
https://code.launchpad.net/bugs/1122316
I didn't notice the thread issue you mentioned so there may be more to be done if you can get a repro case. I only noticed the issue on restarting nova-compute.
FYI the join you want if that is still necessary is:
joinedload_all('instances.system_metadata')
