Hey Zdravko I think that exists under the Preferences items for Bricolage.

Greg and I were poking around there yesterday and I believe I noticed that. Either that or something similar is in the config file for Bricolage.

others can correct me if I'm wrong.

I know there is a config for max number of results per page, not sure about max number of results period.
The config for search results per page is a per user, with a global default, setting that exists within the user UI.

Search Results / Page Controls the number of records displayed per page from searches

If you search on %, it will load everything, even if you paginate. This should be fixed to use OFFSET/LIMIT. Any takers?
