Current implementation uses as many threads as there is physical
cores (or less on weaker cards) - so we are safe as long as
there is less than 20k physical cores.

This approach (no of threads = no of cores) was introduced
after discussion on this list - you can find it in the archives.
Unfortunately I do not have direct URL of those messages.

Best regards.
