Sylvain Lebresne commented on CASSANDRA-14683:
----------------------------------------------

Thinking about this, while we certainly should up/remove the limit supported 
for this, I think the sub-part that really matter the most here is solving the 
case of queries without no limit at all, which doesn't require increasing the 
resolution of the limit in the {{PagingState}}, at least not in theory.

In fact, it might be worth fixing that case in 3.x as well, which I think we 
can do by starting to interpret {{Integer.MAX_VALUE}} as "no limit". That is, 
all we'd change here is that when a new page request has {{Integer.MAX_VALUE}} 
as {{remaining}} in his {{PagingState}}, we'll execute the query exactly like 
today, but we'll simply make sure that the newly returned {{PagingState}} still 
has {{Integer.MAX_VALUE}} as {{remaining}}.

I'll note that this would strictly speaking break backward compatibility in the 
sense that if some user was using {{Integer.MAX_VALUE}} as concrete user LIMIT 
*expecting* the query to not return anymore rows, we would now return more rows 
after this change. It's a wacky enough case that it's imo worth breaking so the 
*much* more common case of "I want all my rows" actually works.

> I am using the nodejs driver to take a dump of my table via 
> [pagination|http://datastax.github.io/nodejs-driver/features/paging/#manual-paging]
>  for a simple query.
> My query is \{{select * from mytable}}
> The table has close to 4 billion rows and cassandra stops returning results 
> exactly after 2147483647 rows. The pagestate is not returned after this.
> Cassandra version - 3.0.9
> Nodejs cassandra driver version - 3.5.0
