Regarding the _includeTotal parameter on the Govern REST API documentation page (I've noticed it on GETs for Asset and Relationships). Can anyone tell me if specifying a false value for _includeTotal improves performance of the API call?
We have Data360 Analyze flows pulling significant amounts of data down from Govern for processing, and I believe all of them are using the default which is to return the total record count of the asset. Most of those data pulls are making multiple batch calls in a loop to retrieve the needed data. The initial call uses the total asset record count to determine how many more calls will be needed, but I don't see any logical need for the subsequent API batches to request that total count if setting it false would result in a performance improvement.
Other suggestions for API call performance improvement welcome as well.
