Validate JPQL pagination and generated SQL inside IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate's JPA Console against a real datasource, catching dialect-specific paging and N+1 issues before deployment.
Offset-based pagination with Hibernate's setFirstResult degrades superlinearly. Cursor-based pagination using a monotonic unique ID and setMaxResults delivers constant-time page loads. Here's how to implement it in JPQL and why it works in Hibernate 5.x and 6.x.
IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate's JPA Console runs JPQL/HQL against your persistence unit without deploying. Set it up safely and use it to verify pagination before wiring queries into repositories.
How Hibernate's setFirstResult and setMaxResults implement database-level pagination, with a worked JPQL example, count-query guidance, the large-offset performance trap, and when to switch to keyset pagination.
