There is a way to do it--see for example https://blog.krecan.net/2014/03/18/how-to-specify-thread-pool-for-java-8-parallel-streams/

It certainly isn't elegant. Perhaps a better way might be an argument to the parallel method that specifies the pool to be used?

Is there any good reason that is so or can I start working on it and propose JEP? Yes, you are right Cay and I am aware of that "way". I am just asking is it was some kind of design decision to omit this from streams API or simply no one thought about including such option?
