# Query limits

> Query timeout, result-display, and session limits for queries in e6data.

Reference limits that apply to running queries and reading their results.

## Execution

| Limit | Value |
| - | - |
| Query timeout | 1–3600 seconds (default 900); set per cluster |

When a query exceeds the cluster's timeout, it is stopped. Raise the cluster's query timeout or move heavy workloads to their own cluster - see [Create and manage clusters](/query/clusters/create-and-manage).

## Results

| Limit | Value |
| - | - |
| Rows displayed in the SQL Editor | First 10,000 rows |
| Row-limit options in the editor | NO LIMIT, 10, 100, 1000 |

For more than 10,000 rows, use an [external connector](/query/connect) or unload to object storage with [`COPY INTO`](/query/sql/copy-into). See [Run queries and view results](/query/querying/run-queries-and-view-results#working-with-large-result-sets).

## Sessions

| Limit | Value |
| - | - |
| PostgreSQL session idle timeout | 1 hour (default) |
