How to find out the maximum number of processes that can be run on a PC?

Question

Multithreading

I am developing a program for translating files using the Google translate API. It should take all the files from the folder of one game and Russify. There are a lot of files, so the program works for a long time. I want to try to scatter all the files among the processes, but I'm afraid that if you run this program on weak PCs, it will simply put the computer down. Is there any way to make "smart" multiprocessing, so that the program itself decides how many processes to run depending on the hardware?
