[jira] [Commented] (FALCON-771) Entity and Instance GET apis should allow user to get ALL results

["Srikanth Sundarrajan (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FALCON-771?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14155998#comment-14155998 ] 

Srikanth Sundarrajan commented on FALCON-771:
---------------------------------------------

[~bvellanki], I would strongly urge you to reconsider the ask. Returning all results might put considerable memory pressure on falcon server momentarily or even go out of memory. In fact I would instead request your to consider adding a feature to cut off numResults to a meaningful cap (say 10000) and any value beyond 10000 should be down sized to 10000.

> Today, the default number of results shown for GET apis is 10. User can override this number by setting queryParam "numResults" to a positive integer. There is no way for user to get all results.
> Update the code to accept negative integer "-1" as value for "numResults". When it is set to "-1", return all results.
