Hi,

In my current implementation of Lucene 4.3 where there are millions of indexed 
records, I do a regular search() and get the topDocs.totalHits as the count of 
results.

As part of this, I store all the results in the session and then let the user 
paginate through the results. With this, I am able to show the "First" 
"Previous" "Next" and "Last" links for navigation along with the "Page 1 of 
500" display.

Obviously, this led to memory issues and I have now decided to use the 
searchAfter() method and hence avoid storing the huge result set in memory.

Question 1: How can I get the total result count in this case? Is it even 
possible as I won't be getting the entire resultset?

Question 2: I know I can provide the "Previous" and "Next" options for 
paginating, but is there anyway I can still provide the "Last" page option, as 
to do that I would need to provide the document object just before the last 
page begins.

Please suggest.

Regards,
Raghu
