Doesn't make sense to query the db for a count of the number of records that are returned. You can figure that out from the result set inside your application.

- ceejayoz 8y agoIf the result set is "all users", you probably don't want to pull tens or hundreds of millions of records just to count them up if you're showing 100 per page.
- bradjohnson 8y agoI think that something like a query for hundreds of millions of records that also required pagination for the exact number of records returned is anomalous and not something that their application would do.
