Inquiry about the purpose of the serial workload parameter

[GuAiden]

I'd like some further clarification on what the SERIAL workload parameter is for.

What's the benchmarking purpose of this workload parameter?

How does it affect the benchmark?

Why is it useful?

Any clarification would be much appreciated and thanks for the great tool!

I'd also like to know about what each of the configuration parameters do.

seial runs each of the queries listed in that work phase sequentially, without inter-query parallelism (there could be intra-query parallelism for each query, but that's a DB specific property).

And yes, we definitely need additional documentation on these parameters.

#370 started this, but it certainly needs more work. Will see what we can do. Thanks for raising this!
