> A few parts of Arrow have started spawning threads to parallelize CPU-bound tasks. They do so by launching a hard-coded number of threads, disregarding machine configuration or the fact that Arrow itself might be used from several threads at once (so hardcoding 8 threads might end up launch N * 8 threads if the user is calling Arrow from N threads at once...).
> Instead we probably want a global thread pool policy, with a singleton thread pool for CPU-bound tasks (using, by default, a number of threads equal to the machine's capacity).
> See discussion in [https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/1893]
