Hi all 👋

What is the difference between?

- [find](http://parseplatform.org/Parse-SDK-JS/api/3.4.1/Parse.Query.html#find) and
- [findAll](http://parseplatform.org/Parse-SDK-JS/api/3.4.1/Parse.Query.html#findAll)

Thank you 🙂

`find` will fetch the objects but the results will be limited to the default Parse Server limit (if any) and the objects will be retrieved all at once (which can result on a timeout if you have a big result set). `findAll` will retrieve all objects regardless of parse server default limit and it will do it in small batches to avoid any timeout.
