It defines how many GRIB messages are consumed from the stream and kept in memory at a time. ``batch_size=0`` means all the messages will be loaded and stored in memory.  When ``batch_size`` is not zero ``from_source`` gives us a stream iterator object. During the iteration temporary objects are created for each message then get deleted when going out of scope.
