# Change the Maximum Number of Documents to Use to Compare Searches

The Compare option allows you to compare two saved searches. By default, Find compares all the available results for both searches, which provides the most accurate comparison. For very large data sets, complete comparisons for large queries might be quite slow. In this case, you can improve the performance by reducing the maximum number of results to use in the comparison.

To change the maximum number of documents to use

1. Go to the Find home directory.

2. Open `config.json` in a text editor.

3. Add the `comparisonStoreStateMaxResults` property, and set it to the maximum number of results to use in the comparison. For example:

       "comparisonStoreStateMaxResults": 100000

   This example compares the first 100000 results.

4. Restart Find to apply your configuration changes.
