Hi, I'm writing a very "simple" SRU-server. I'm worried about the response parameter "numberOfRecords". For me it would seem natural to request for the "numberOfRecords" only when you need it, fex. by using "maximumRecords=0". Have I understood this right, although requesting "small pages" of a large result-set, the answer of the server should always contain the "numberOfRecords"-response parameter? Isn't there a way to tell the server that I already know the "numberOfRecords" and you(=the server) don't have to count them for me? Any advice appreciated! Caching query and nrOfRecords in application session? Background: It's relatively simple to get a limited page from a database, not necessarily getting the number of records for the whole result-set within the same Sql-clause. Regards RogerW.
