Hello guys,

reading this 
doc: 
http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/search-request-scroll.html#scroll-scan
I do not understand the following:
Deep pagination with from and size 
<http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/search-request-from-size.html>
 
— e.g. ?size=10&from=10000 — is very inefficient as (in this example) 
100,000 sorted results have to be retrieved from each shard and resorted in 
order to return just 10 results. This process has to be repeated for every 
page requested.

why is it 100,000 and not 10010?

Thanks
