noticethat they can parallelize and speed up those operations? Only in reference pages? I think it's better to have

I think it is in the respective pages of those operations. Forex. the

I think each feature should develop the docs as part of feature
development but if we want to see some additional work like improving
overall docs for parallel execution as you are suggesting then it can
be done separately as well.
I think you have a valid point but maybe it would be better to do the
improvements you are suggesting once the parallel inserts related work
is committed.
