Description

On haproxy_global.php , the description for the setting Number of threads to start per process says: 

Defaults to 1 if left blank (2 CPU core(s) detected).
FOR NOW, THREADS SUPPORT IN HAPROXY 1.8 IS HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL AND IT MUST BE ENABLED WITH CAUTION AND AT YOUR OWN RISK.

This looks to be an obsolete warning, as haproxy 1.8 was released in 2017, and pfSense 24.11 is using version 2.9.11.
The warning should be removed unless there is still a reason to keep it.

I can confirm this.

Additionally, reading HAProxy's documentation, since HAProxy 2.4, multithreading is enabled by default, so it's possible that this option no longer needs to be defaulted to 1 thread and the warning should be removed with it defaulting to the default automatic behavior.
