------------------------------------------
For enhanced query support we have SLING-4752
> Support Limit and Offset via JcrResourceProvider / findResources

> Key: SLING-11230
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-11230
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: JCR
> Reporter: Dan Klco

> *Problem Statement*
> In addition to not supporting global limits, there are good reasons that a
> developer may want to return only a sub-set of the query results when
> executing a query. For example returning the 10 latest uploaded files.
> Currently this can be accomplished by executing a query and then only
> iterating to the 10th item, however a much larger query set may be fetched
> from the node store than required to service the intended use case.
> In addition, to support paging, the current implementation would require
> retrieving and iterating over the Resources until the desired start point is
> found then reading the subsequent Resources.
> _However_ changing the API contract for the ResourceResolver to either add a
> new method with the start and limit values would have a non-insignificant
> ripple effect into the implementations, mocks and providers which would be
> required to support this new method.
