Clearly we would prefer to have Swarm implement the former, but all
it currently implements is the latter.  However, you can determine
if concurrency would change the dynamics of your model by calling
"[forEachAction setDefaultOrder: Randomized]" where "forEachAction"
is the result of createActionForEach:message:.
