Professional 1.7.31
Summary: Burp Suite Professional 1.7.31, released Friday, 19 January 2018, adds two capabilities for project files: importing project files into another disk-based project to merge separately carried out work, and selecting project files as input to the compare site maps function. The release also renames the Scanner options setting "Number of threads" to "Concurrent request limit", which PortSwigger says paves the way for major Scanner engine enhancements in the pipeline.
Bottom line: The renamed setting signals that the Scanner engine is being reworked, so teams that tuned scanning around a thread count should expect the concurrency control they rely on to change meaning.
