Learn how Hibernate setFirstResult and setMaxResults prevent OutOfMemoryErrors by pushing pagination to the database, with a worked example and performance tips.
Hibernate's setFirstResult/setMaxResults paginate in the database — until a collection fetch join silently moves pagination into JVM memory. Here's how to spot it, fix it with a two-step query, and when to switch to keyset pagination.
A diagnostic path for Hibernate LazyInitializationException: locate the session boundary that closed too early, then pick a fix that matches the finding.
Learn how to implement server-side pagination in Grails using GORM's max and offset parameters to prevent OutOfMemoryErrors and optimize database performance.
