I did some experiments, maybe it helps:

When building with modules (I don't have much experience with modules), I couldn't find any symbol for tbb when using `nm`, when I replaced modules with `#include`s, tbb was used, `task_arena`s to be more specific.  

Using `perf record -s ./parallel` I could confirm, that the module version doesn't use tbb or threads, but using includes, 8 threads (my core count × 2) are used for 100 inputs.

Here is my code:

```c++
#include <execution>
#include <print>
#include <ranges>
#include <thread>

int main() {
  auto values{std::ranges::views::iota(0, 100)};
    std::for_each(
        std::execution::par, 
        std::begin(values), std::end(values), 
        [] (const auto value) {
            std::println("value: {}, thread: {}", 
                value, std::this_thread::get_id());
        }
    );
        
    return 0;
}
```

and my output:
