You set the number of OS threads with +RTS -N at runtime. This value
is accessible from Haskell via:
GHC.Conc:
-- | the value passed to the @+RTS -N@ flag. This is the number of
-- Haskell threads that can run truly simultaneously at any given
-- time, and is typically set to the number of physical CPU cores on
-- the machine.
