title: Couchdb query view limit
body: <p>When querying documents in a view, is there a limit to the number of documents that is shown if <code>limit</code> parameter is not mentioned?</p>
  
  <p>This <a href="https://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/HTTP_view_API" rel="nofollow noreferrer">link</a> does say that <code>Columns can be a list of values, there is no set limit to the number of values or amount of data that columns can hold.</code></p>
  
  <p>But not sure if it means we can put any number as limit or by default it has no limits. I just want to know if by default when the limit parameter is not mentioned, is there any limit to the number of outputted docs? </p>
