Currently we call flows calling flows and the above displays how it would 
look in a pipeline.

Nested parallel blocks can lead to *swamping your available executors*, as 
each execution of the first parallel block calls multiple executions of the 
second parallel block, and so on. In general, think carefully about your 
parallelism and your available executors when using parallel.


With this in mind we could

*parallel* (
    'windows': {
        stage('windows tests') {
            *parallel* (
                some_tests_1, # is a chunk of tests
                some_tests_2,  # is a chunk of tests
                some_tests_3  # is a chunk of tests
            )
        }
    }
    'linux': ...same as above

*Don’t put stages in parallel **blocks* - that just goes *weird*, breaking 
a lot of logic in the Stage View and elsewhere. Save yourself the pain - 
don't do it!


So how do you display this work flow properly if we should not use stages 
in parallel?
