+#### Disable result count
+
+By default, a search query also counts all matching results.
+If you don't need the total count, set `performCount` to `false` on [`Query`](/api/php_api_reference/classes/Ibexa-Contracts-Core-Repository-Values-Content-Query.html) or [`LocationQuery`](/api/php_api/php_api_reference/classes/Ibexa-Contracts-Core-Repository-Values-Content-LocationQuery.html) to improve performance, especially for large result sets.
+
+``` php
+[[= include_code('code_samples/api/public_php_api/src/perform_count.php') =]]
+```
+
+When `performCount` is set to `false`, `$result->totalCount` is `null`.
+
 #### Search with `query` and `filter`
 
 You can use two properties of the `Query` object to search for content: `query` and `filter`.
