At what point does the Tokio runtime know when to spawn more threads?

1

Using this feature in Cargo.toml:

tokio = { version = "0.2.11", features = ["rt-threaded"] }

I can then fire-up a threaded runtime:

    let mut threaded_rt = runtime::Builder::new()
        .threaded_scheduler()
        .build()?;

threaded_rt.block_on(...)

My question is: How does tokio know when to begin using the other threads in the ThreadPool? Does this happen when a single event loop begins to have more than a single Poll::Ready status after polling all the futures?

Also, are there multiple event loops running, or just one primary event loop?
