Explanation
A key practical distinction between the two commands is that 'transaction' has a default limit of 1,000 events per transaction and is generally slower and more memory-intensive. The 'stats' command is more scalable and efficient for large datasets. When events do not need to be viewed as a grouped single event and performance matters, 'stats' is preferred. This limitation is a meaningful criterion for choosing between them.
