+4  Q: 

Get number of RTS threads in Haskell program?

Is there an IO action that gives me the number of OS threads the RTS was initialized with? It would be nice to be able to use this as an argument to the parBuffer function from the Control.Parallel.Strategies module.

+4  A: 

Assuming GHC, you could use GHC.Conc.numCapabilities to get the argument to +RTS -N.

Exactly what I was looking for. (I am using GHC.) Thanks!
