// The environment variable used to limit the number of threads the application
// may spawn:
//           0 - no change, i.e. defaults to maximum physical concurrency
//           1 - single-threaded mode
//  positive n - limit to n threads
//  negative n - limit to all but n machine cores (minimum 1).
//
// Note that the environment variable value always wins over any value passed to
// the API calls below. If PXR_WORK_THREAD_LIMIT is set to a non-zero value, the
// concurrency limit cannot be changed at runtime.
