  Where are all these threads coming from?

I'm running 3.7RC3 under XP32-SP3 on an i7 CPU. I just rendered an image (actually I
just finished a continued render 
from last week) and noticed the following:

Render Time:
   Photon Time:      0 hours 16 minutes 54 seconds (1014.000 seconds)
               using 11 thread(s) with 3628.419 CPU-seconds total
   Radiosity Time:   No radiosity
   Trace Time:       1 hours  4 minutes 42 seconds (3882.079 seconds)
               using 8 thread(s) with 28627.340 CPU-seconds total

The 8 threads is correct, but 11 threads? Is POV fraying my CPU?
