Maximo

Hi,

while working with TECHMOBILE WO-list loading performance optimization we have decided to limit the default page size fetched from the server at once. I was able to do that but I made an interesting discovery along the way which I cannot see documented anywhere. 

Namely according to the official MAF Components documentation the default page-size is 50 and yet if you analyze the web request then you can see oslc.pageSize=100 in the actual request.

It made me wonder why is that and I stumbled opon following function in the @maximo/maximo-js-api module, which applications depend on.

  /**
   * Returns the size of the fetch window based on the passed in page size.  A fetch window is typically a multiple of the page size where
   * we fetch/load more data than we need in a page, to make paging operations perform better.
   *
   * @param {number} size - The page size.
   *
   * @returns {number} Fetch window size.
   */
  getFetchPageSize(size) {
    // if we are only loading a single item, then just load a single item.
    if (size === 1) return size;
    if (this.options.exactPageSize) return size;

    // we always try to load more data that our page/window size
    let fetchWindowSize = size * 2;

    // but, if the data is being requesting is more that 100 then we'll just whatever the window size is
    if (fetchWindowSize > 100) {
      fetchWindowSize = size;
    }
    return fetchWindowSize;
  }

The function comments speak for themselves and it's not my point to question the logic. 

The real question is whether there is any declarative way (app.xml) to somehow configure this.options.exactPageSize value in runtime for a specific data source and instruct the framework to use explicitly given page-size attribute value?
If there is no declarative way then what would be the right way of doing this for the standard TECHMOBILE application dswolist data set in JavaScript?

NOTES: 

1. Of course I can do the math myself and knowing the underlying logic I can provide the value which will match my expectations, but this arbitrarily defined threshold of 100 worries me "a bit". I would rather prefer to have solid control of the actual page size used when querying Maximo. 

2. Version:
   * Graphite build version: 2.13.567
   * Configuration version: 9.0.4

Feedback is highly appreciated! Thanks!
