Doesn’t that have an even worse problem, in that if you use a query for an extended period, the results are going to change out from under you while you’re scanning them? Seems like you can’t build a stable crawler on that — you’d need to store the actual result list, not redo the query each time.
- mlthoughts2018 7y agoThis system used pagination keying, not just a link to a page of the results. The link would take you back to the most recently visited item from your pagination key. Results could have changed in that sort order, but that is a risk in all pagination, depending on the freshness of results required by the user.
