Description Quanah Gibson-Mount 2020-12-15 21:16:43 UTC 
When performing a query that matches 744 entries, the number of returned entries varies depending on the page size requested.

For a page size of 300, it returns 767 entries
For a page size of 500, it returns 759 entries

Running the results for sort -u correctly shows 744 unique entries.  So anywhere from 15 to 23 duplicates are returned in the above case.
Comment 1 Quanah Gibson-Mount 2020-12-15 21:19:25 UTC 
With a page size of 10, there are 2,042 non-unique entries returned.  After running through sort -u, we have the correct result of 744.
Comment 2 Howard Chu 2020-12-15 22:59:08 UTC 
Bug is due to use of dynlist in configuration. Fixed in master.
