Github user Peilin-Yang commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/zeppelin/pull/1371 @echarles Yes the table can only hold limited number of rows (1000) to not to overload the client. I think the limit is set by the interpreter not the front end client. That said, there is no way for the front end client to know about the whole picture of the data. But what I meant is the purpose of sorting the table is for the current data in the table which means this is fine as long as it correctly sorts the table shown in the page. Does this make any sense?
