I have the following issue:
*Document library with over 100,000 items (divided into various folders)
*One of the folders has a few documents in it (under 10). This is the folder I'll be referencing.
*Environment - Windows XP, Office 2007, SharePoint 2010.
A non-super-user with contribute permissions browses to the folder, then selects to export to Excel. An error about a driver issue shows up and the export fails. Within the SharePoint ULS logs, I see a "Throttled: Big list slow query." message along with a user ID that I've tracked back to this user. Above this I can see the XML soap call with the CAML.
Within that, I see <ViewAttributes Scope="RecursiveAll"/>. This needs to be<ViewAttributes Scope="FilesOnly"/>, or the query will search the entire library instead of just the folder, which is clearly why the list view gets exceeded.
How can I fix this?
