Hi,

We have a flow that consists of multiple flows. There are two parent flows on which multiple flows depend. The two parent flows are independent of each other. I see the flows execute serially satisfying dependency constraints... but don't see any nondependent flows running in parallel. Should we expect the two independent flows to be scheduled in parallel or they would still run serially one after the other?

<@U018XT6TFRU> adding you in the loop as well

Hey <@U024P69B4KU>, are you using LocalDaskExecutor or DaskExecutor? I think it should run in parallel if there is no dependency

Hey Kevin, we didn't change or set any executor - which one would be the default?

The default is `LocalExecutor` so sequential execution. For any parallelism, you’ll need to set `LocalDaskExecutor` or `DaskExecutor`

And in this scenario, any of the two might start first?

Yes I think any of independent starting tasks can start first
