As an addition, some operators can only be run with a parallelism of 1. For
example data sources based on collections and (un-grouped) all reduces. In
some cases, the parallelism of the following operators will as well be set
to 1 to avoid a network shuffle.

If you do:

env.fromCollection(myCollection).map(new MyMapper()).groupBy(0).reduce(new
MyReduce()).writeToFile();

the data source and mapper will be run with a parallelism of 1, the reducer
and sink will be executed with the default parallelism.
