I don't understand this.

As I see it, you'd have three drop-downs, all with a particular filter type,
and one option of "all" (very similar to the current setup). If there are a lot
of results, you can paginate, right? That's what you'd do with a large data set
in nearly any other context. Set a limit and paginate through the results with
an offset.

I think pagination might be easier to implement if BannerAllocation used GET
instead of POST. Not really sure why it's currently using POST. Probably the
subject of a separate bug, though.
