Obviously, Koha global pagination function could be improved. This patch
do something which belongs to this function. A CPAN module like
Data::Page could help or be an inspiration... 3.4?
There is also room for improvement in they way resultset are
constructed. The whole set is retrieved and just a subset is displayed.
It impacts performances for libraries with a great number of patrons.
The right solution would be:
- to find the resultset size with SELECT COUNT(*)
- to retrieved the exact subset with LIMIT and OFFSET SQL arguments
