OMP_THREAD_LIMIT – Set the maximum number of threads#

Description:

Specifies the number of threads to use for the whole program. The value of this variable shall be a positive integer. If undefined, the number of threads is not limited.

See also:

OMP_NUM_THREADS – Specifies the number of threads to use, omp_get_thread_limit – Maximum number of threads

Reference:

OpenMP specification v4.5, Section 4.10
