+  When the max_batch_duration_secs arg is provided, a stateful implementation
+  of BatchElements is used to batch elements across bundles. This is most
+  impactful in streaming applications where many bundles only contain one
+  element. Larger max_batch_duration_secs values `might` reduce the throughput
+  of the transform, while smaller values might improve the throughput but
+  make it more likely that batches are smaller than the target batch size.
+
+  As a general recommendation, start with low values (e.g. 0.005 aka 5ms) and
+  increase as needed to get the desired tradeoff between target batch size
+  and latency or throughput.
