+==== Processing results as they are returned from the Gremlin server
+
+
+The Gremlin JavaScript driver maintains a WebSocket connection to the Gremlin
server and receives messages according to the `batchSize` parameter on the per
request settings or the `resultIterationBatchSize` value configured for the
Gremlin server. When submitting scripts the default behavior is to wait for the
entire result set to be returned from a query before allowing any processing on
the result set.
+
+The following examples assume that you have 100 vertices in your graph.
+
+[source,javascript]
+----
+const result = await client.submit("g.V()");
+console.log(result.toArray()); // 100 - all the vertices in your graph
+----
+
+When working with larger result sets it may be beneficial for memory
management to process each chunk of data as it is returned from the gremlin
server. The Gremlin JavaScript driver can accept an optional callback to run on
each chunk of data returned.
+
+[source,javascript]
+----
+
+await client.submit("g.V()", {}, { batchSize: 25 }, (data) => {
Review comment:
I think mixing promises and callbacks in the same API can be confusing
and prone to misuse.
I think we should expose a different method for "streaming" or grouping into
smaller sets of results, for example with async iterables:
```javascript
const stream = client.stream(traversal);
for await (const item of stream) {
statement
}
```
or regular callbacks
```javascript
client.forEach(traversal, item => {
// called for each item
}, err => {
// called at the end or when there's an error
});
```

Review comment:
Maybe instead of having 4 resultsets, the user wants to access each
individual item.
