Fixes DOC-8591 Previously, we stated that the cost of writes is ~`O(1)` in the number of inserts, which is wrong. The reality is that despite the parallelism introduced by pipelining, there is other work that happens for each SQL statement write that does not come "for free".

@stevendanna as the reviewer of #19601 (buffered writes) are you also a good reviewer for this update to the transaction pipelining docs? specifically we're correcting some misleading statements about performance that led to a customer filing a support issue (see DOC-8591 for details) |
