Reducing batch size does not always guarantee an increase in overall efficiency. While smaller batch sizes can lead to faster feedback, more frequent deliveries, and reduced risk, there can be situations where reducing the batch size too much results in inefficiencies, such as increased overhead costs or excessive context switching. Thus, the relationship between batch size and efficiency depends on the context, system constraints, and the nature of the work

I’m leaning towards true, but I remember some examples where smaller batches actually slowed things down. It's tricky!

I want to say it's false because reducing batch size can lead to more overhead, but I can't recall the specifics.

I feel like there was a practice question that mentioned diminishing returns with smaller batch sizes. Maybe it's not always true?

I think I remember something about batch sizes affecting efficiency, but I'm not sure if it's always a direct correlation.
