Limitations
Option
Description
Limit page size to
Number of table rows that are shown on one page. If you do not want to limit the number of rows displayed simultaneously, clear the checkbox.
Also, you can change the page size by clicking the Change page size list of the pagination toolbar.
Consider the following example where Limit page size to is set to 2:
Result set prefetch size
Number of rows from a database that is retrieved in one chunk.
A bigger number means less round trips between IDE and a database but more memory for storing a chunk.

To open the filter history in the editor, click the WHERE or ORDER BY field and press Alt+Down.
Maximum number of bytes loaded per value
Maximum size of a binary large object to be loaded in bytes.
Show first N data rows in preview
Limit number of rows for a quick documentation popup. To see quick documentation, press Ctrl+Q.
