    \class QThreadPool
    \inmodule QtCore
    \brief The QThreadPool class manages a collection of QThreads.
    \since 4.4
    \threadsafe

    \ingroup thread

    QThreadPool manages and recyles individual QThread objects to help reduce
    thread creation costs in programs that use threads. Each Qt application
    has one global QThreadPool object, which can be accessed by calling
    globalInstance().

    To use one of the QThreadPool threads, subclass QRunnable and implement
    the run() virtual function. Then create an object of that class and pass
    it to QThreadPool::start().

    \snippet code/src_corelib_concurrent_qthreadpool.cpp 0

    QThreadPool deletes the QRunnable automatically by default. Use
    QRunnable::setAutoDelete() to change the auto-deletion flag.

    QThreadPool supports executing the same QRunnable more than once
    by calling tryStart(this) from within QRunnable::run().
    If autoDelete is enabled the QRunnable will be deleted when
    the last thread exits the run function. Calling start()
    multiple times with the same QRunnable when autoDelete is enabled
    creates a race condition and is not recommended.

    Threads that are unused for a certain amount of time will expire. The
    default expiry timeout is 30000 milliseconds (30 seconds). This can be
    changed using setExpiryTimeout(). Setting a negative expiry timeout
    disables the expiry mechanism.

    Call maxThreadCount() to query the maximum number of threads to be used.
    If needed, you can change the limit with setMaxThreadCount(). The default
    maxThreadCount() is QThread::idealThreadCount(). The activeThreadCount()
    function returns the number of threads currently doing work.

    The reserveThread() function reserves a thread for external
    use. Use releaseThread() when your are done with the thread, so
    that it may be reused.  Essentially, these functions temporarily
    increase or reduce the active thread count and are useful when
    implementing time-consuming operations that are not visible to the
    QThreadPool.

    Note that QThreadPool is a low-level class for managing threads, see
    the Qt Concurrent module for higher level alternatives.
