My mapreduce script is stopping with error SSS_TIME_LIMIT_EXCEEDED getInputData, this is probably due to my search has at least 500k records. What is the best way to do in search.load to limit the result to 100K?

I cant say if this is the best way, but what I've done in the past was just added a "Date Created" filter to the search, pick a date a while back and just guess/test the date until you get <100,000 results. Then after you run the M/R script once, update the filter to Date created between a date further back and the first date you set, etc etc until you're done

Add a formula to your search of

rownum < 100000

(

["formulanumeric: rownum","lessthan","100000"]

)

I saw a huge time save after switching to running a paginated search (

Search.runPaged(options)

) Check out this thread discussing further performance benefits of using

N/query

for large data sets
