limit

open fun limit(amount: Long): Pipeline<Document>

Limits the number of elements passed to the next stage to amount.

Sort results aren't stable with limit: if multiple documents are identical, their relative order is undefined and may change from one execution to the next.

To avoid surprises, include a unique field in your sort, for example _id.
