java导出线程,在Java 8中并行生成了多少个线程？

In JDK8, how many threads are spawned when i'm using parallelStream? For instance, in the code:

list.parallelStream().forEach(/** Do Something */);

If this list has 100000 items, how many threads will be spawned?

Also, do each of the threads get the same number of items to work on or is it randomly allotted?

The Oracle's implementation[1] of parallel stream uses the current thread and in addition to that, if needed, also the threads that compose the default fork join pool ForkJoinPool.commonPool(), which has a default size equal to one less than the number of cores of your CPU.

That default size of the common pool can be changed with this property:

-Djava.util.concurrent.ForkJoinPool.common.parallelism=8

Alternatively, you can use your own pool:

ForkJoinPool myPool = new ForkJoinPool(8);

myPool.submit(() ->

list.parallelStream().forEach(/* Do Something */);

).get();

Regarding the order, jobs will be executed as soon as a thread is available, in no specific order.

As correctly pointed out by @Holger this is an implementation specific detail (with just one vague reference at the bottom of a document), both approaches will work on Oracle's JVM but are definitely not guaranteed to work on JVMs from other vendors, the property could not exist in a non-Oracle implementation and Streams could not even use a ForkJoinPool internally rendering the alternative based on the behavior of ForkJoinTask.fork completely useless (see here for details on this).
