The deployment guide stated the connector issues a single `_search` request per query returning at most 10,000 hits and advised users to accelerate for larger result sets. In reality, the connector automatically paginates using PIT + `search_after` for queries without LIMIT or with LIMIT > 10,000 — matching what the connector index.md already documents (corrected in PR #1712) and what the code implements at query_table.rs:231.
