Maximum # of results returned by one hop	The maximum number of items to display when fetching one hop. Default value is 20.
Search results page size	The maximum number of matching items to display in the Search dialog results tab for any type of search. If the total items found exceeds this size, you can use the paging control to go to the next page of results. Default value is 20.
