So, you didn't find the docs?

https://docs.python.org/3/library/concurrent.futures.html#threadpoolexecutor

"""
class concurrent.futures.ThreadPoolExecutor(max_workers)

     An Executor subclass that uses a pool of at most max_workers 
threads to execute calls asynchronously.
"""

https://docs.python.org/3/library/concurrent.futures.html#processpoolexecutor

"""
class concurrent.futures.ProcessPoolExecutor(max_workers=None)

     An Executor subclass that executes calls asynchronously using a 
pool of at most max_workers processes. If max_workers is None or not 
given, it will default to the number of processors on the machine.
