Github user srowen commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/14054 I'm reluctant to add yet another (undocumented) config for another behavior. Still, it's not that big a deal. My question is: is there a good reason to employ `SERIALIZABLE`? it means only one partition can be written at once. We have other destinations that don't have these semantics; even this output is happy to proceed with no transaction at all. The downside is that partial writes are observable, but that didn't seem to be the motivation for using transactions in the first place. If people are pretty neutral I'd say leave it; if anyone feels fairly strongly about it I'll just make up some suitable config but leave this new transaction isolation level as the default.
