# Predict

Set `Predict` to `True` to predict the total number of results that are available for your query if the number of results exceeds the configured TotalResultsPredictionThreshold. This option has an effect only when you set TotalResults to `True`. Predicting the total increases the query speed.

If you enable prediction, IDOL Server returns an `<autn:predicted>` tag in the response to indicate whether it used prediction. This tag contains a Boolean value, which is `True` if the query matched enough documents to reach the prediction threshold. If the prediction threshold was not reached and the values are exact, `<autn:predicted>` contains the value `False`.

Set `Predict` to `False` to count all results, and print the number of results for each database.
