   Streams the results of a query.
 
-  This utilizes keyset pagination to accomplish this stream, and for that reason,
-  the action for the query must support keyset pagination.
+  ## Strategies
+
+  There are three strategies supported, and the best one available is always chosen. They are,
+  in order from best to worst:
+
+  - `:keyset`
+  - `:offset`
+  - `:full_read`
+
+  By default, only `:keyset` is supported. If you want to allow worse strategies to be used, pass
+  the worst one you wish to allow as the `allow_stream_with` option, i.e `allow_stream_with: :full_read`.
+  If you wish to specify a specific strategy to use, pass `stream_with: :strategy_name`.
+
+  ### Keyset
+
+  This utilizes keyset pagination to accomplish this stream. The action must support keyset pagination.
+  This is the most efficient way to stream a query, because it works by using filters which can benefit
+  from indexes in the data layer.
+
+  ### Offset
+
+  This utilizes offset/limit to accomplish this stream. If the action supports offset pagination, that will
+  be used. Otherwise, if the data layer supports limit/offset, then explicit limits/offsets will be used.
+  This is a much less efficient way of streaming a resource than `keyset`. To use limit/offset to reliably
+  stream, a sort must always be applied, and limit/offset in the data layer will generally require sorting
+  the entire table to figure out what is in each batch.
+
+  ### Full Read
+
+  This reads the entire table into memory with no limit. This is, generally speaking, the least efficient.
