Is there a description of how that works, short of reading the codebase to find out? Single global warming queue and per thread queues stealing from global queue ? lockless? Theda spin when no task to process ?

https://github.com/rayon-rs/rayon is what Firefox/Servo uses, and it’s got a nice writeup in the README :)
