Does RethinkDb support request pipelining?

Question

Does RethinkDb support request pipelining, grouping multiple requests in one connection? If yes, is it done automatically behind the scenes in a lower level? Thanks!

Answer 1

RethinkDB currently does not process more than one query per connection at a time.

In the special case of insert operations, batched inserts can be used to obtain a similar effect.

Edit: This answer is outdated. Since RethinkDB 2.0, multiple queries can be executed on the same connection at the same time, as long as the driver supports issuing multiple queries without waiting for the previous one to finish.
