As a DB guy, I have to say that if an application is sending a query that 
expects to get 100 results back but gets 1,000,000 back, you have a bug that 
needs to be tracked down and fixed.  Patching it by limiting the results is 
kind of a database version of "except: pass" to get rid of an inconvenient but 
mysterious exception.
