That's actually a good point. But if you have one giant database, the
overlap of which tables are being accessed by various sessions is going
to be immense.

There probably should be a point about this in the docs, though. There
are more and more shared-hosting setups or places that spread their data
horizontally across separate databases for various clients, and in those
cases, parallel usage does not imply overlap.
