There is a discussion on sage-support where Simon King
mentions the multimodular algorithm for computing determinants
of integer-valued matrices as a good use case for parallelism:

Thanks for the feedback so far. It seems that there are pros and cons to
all of the options.
What about the following: We go with the somewhat random min(8, number of
threads) and print a warning once if "number of threads" > 8 (telling the
user to export SAGE_NUM_THREADS)? Note that this

This makes sense for single-user machines, but the current default was

The actual number of cores/threads on a system probably isn't either on

I would also expect it to run as many threads as my laptop has cores (+
hyperthreading if available).
