I don't know that. I don't know how database servers work internally. They 
might be multithreaded, and/or on a server with multiple CPU cores. The hard 
drives might be SSDs or a RAID. So they might be very able to handle multiple 
read requests in parallel.

The normal node way seems to be to start things in parallel, up to a point. I 
assume the database drivers will queue requests, if you ask for too many of 
them to be started at one time.
