Feel free to continue the flamefest while I am gone, but I think it would be a good idea to ponder this a few days befire we flame on anyways.<br> <br>Just a thought before I sign off for now - if the idea is to do really really optimized paging then GetPagedHits (s, offset, count) might not be what we want. By using a search.pagesize session property the call could be reduced to GetHitPage (s, page_num) and the server would have a chance to pre-prepare the pages for maximum efficiency. Other small tweaks might be possible. This is Jamie's original 3).<br> <br>Cheers,<br>Mikkel<br></div></div><br>
