org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.process.traversal.strategy.optimization

## Class EarlyLimitStrategy

- java.lang.Object
- - org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.process.traversal.strategy.AbstractTraversalStrategy<TraversalStrategy.OptimizationStrategy>
  - - org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.process.traversal.strategy.optimization.EarlyLimitStrategy

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, Comparable<Class<? extends TraversalStrategy>>, TraversalStrategy<TraversalStrategy.OptimizationStrategy>, TraversalStrategy.OptimizationStrategy

      public final class EarlyLimitStrategy
      extends AbstractTraversalStrategy<TraversalStrategy.OptimizationStrategy>
      implements TraversalStrategy.OptimizationStrategy

  This strategy looks for `RangeGlobalStep`s that can be moved further left in the traversal and thus be applied earlier. It will also try to merge multiple `RangeGlobalStep`s into one. If the logical consequence of one or multiple `RangeGlobalStep`s is an empty result, the strategy will remove as many steps as possible and add a `NoneStep` instead.

  Example:

         __.out().valueMap().limit(5)                          // becomes __.out().limit(5).valueMap()
         __.outE().range(2, 10).valueMap().limit(5)            // becomes __.outE().range(2, 7).valueMap()
         __.outE().limit(5).valueMap().range(2, -1)            // becomes __.outE().range(2, 5).valueMap()
         __.outE().limit(5).valueMap().range(5, 10)            // becomes __.outE().none()
         __.outE().limit(5).valueMap().range(5, 10).cap("a")   // becomes __.outE().none().cap("a")
