[Twisted-Python] deferToThread and thread pool
I have a few questions about the default implementation of deferToThread.
1. Does deferToThread use a thread pool by default? If not, how can I enable this?
2. Which thread are the callbacks and errbacks of the deferred returned by deferToThread run in?
Thanks in advance!

Yes

The reactor (i.e., probably the main) thread.

Yes. You can adjust the threadpool size using reactor.suggestThreadPoolSize:

The main thread, i.e. the reactor thread.
