Ok, got it. Will put it on the to-do list.

I think I understand the question (although I have no answer):

When someone uses the "Find" page search, then there is an option to limit the search to e.g. the last year. If you search for a non existing string, it'll only search entries from the past year.

If people are instead using the quickfilter to search for the same non existing string, then all entries of all past years are searched for the string.

In both cases the result page will be empty, so "Entries per page" does not change anything. But in the second case the search might need an order of magnitude longer.

I don't get your point. If you go on the list page of this forum, you see -- all entries -- in the period quick filter, but you only see one page of entries, which is rather quick. This can be changed wiht "Entries per page", which defaults to 20. Do you have a different set-up?

I'm aware there is the "Show Last Default" setting for the Find page but is there (or can there PLEASE be) a similar setting for the Period filter on the List page? Our users routinely use the Quick Filters instead and it bogs down the system because we have lots of logbooks. Many thanks.
