there's a thread on blink-dev [1] and whatwg [2] to create a new parameter on the navigator object that returns the maximum number of tasks that can run in parallel. 
Spec is not defined but there's a proposal on a wiki. [3]

Blink is going to implement this [4]. Mozilla is on the fence and there's been no signal from Microsoft.
