The "vars" argument to parse_as_rest() can include "offset" and "limit" 
keys, which default to 0 and 1000, respectively.

If you want to return all records, you can add "limit" to the URL query 
string:

/myapp/controller/api?limit=[very large number]

or just update the "vars" dictionary within the GET() function:

        vars.update(limit=[very large number])
