I'm running a query against a view that emits ~5M rows. The key that's being emitted for each row is 32 characters and the value is < 10 characters. I'm using the NodeJS 2.0.8 client and running a query with 'skip' set to 1,600,000 (give or take 100,000) and with 'limit' set to 10,000 (I've also tried 100,000 with the same results).
Sometimes it works. Other times it gives the following error after about 1 minute 15 seconds:
undefined:0
SyntaxError: Unexpected end of input
at parse (native)
I've tried increasing the operationTimeout to 5 minutes with no apparent affect.
I can't find anything in the logs. Any ideas?
A second related question is that it seems like setting the limit to 10k when pulling from the beginning of the view (i.e. skip is set to 0) causes the view query to return results very quickly. But when setting 'skip' to a much higher value, the query takes a lot longer, even though 'limit' is still set to 10k. I assumed the query time would be linear with the same limit regardless of where in the full data set the results are coming from. Is this expected behavior?
