Django-sphinx returns not more than 20 resuts #23
Description
QuerySet returned by sphinx may report more than 20 items in it but enumeration will return only first 20.
qset = Myclass.sphinx_search.query(q)
print qset.count() #prints more than 20
the enumeration loop stops after 20 iteration
for e in qset:
do something
This question was also asked on stackoverflow:

A solution proposed is to evaluate the query set:
for e in qset[0:qset.count()]:
do something
This works fine for small sets but could have a large memory overhead because all items might need to be loaded in memory. In contrast, iterating over a QuerySet will load objects only as you need them.
It would be better to make the first approach work.
