Hi, Just wondered whether there is a maximum number of search results being set in the background of Discourse at all? I wanted to see how many of the automated topics we have that are created have any responses, I found 305 that do not, but I wanted to find the total number of the automated posts…

Not really, we do this here to protect the server, search becomes very expensive when you are paging through enormous amounts of topics, the offset keeps on costing more and more.
