Where does the benefit of using it come from? When would one want to
use it? Is it because the parallelization happens on the client or on
the server? Does it happen because to CPU parallelization or because of
disk access parallelization? Is it useful to use it on multi-CPU
systems or on multi-disk systems? The current description implies a bit
of each, I think. And it is not clear what a good number to choose is.
