What is the default behavior of monerod concerning the --max-concurrency flag?

Building my own php-based monero profit calculator for fun. However, setting a static variable for "block_reward" would be very bad, and become less accurate as time goes by. I've looked at this thread here: What is the mining reward equation? I've…
