Tree-paging is a pretty complicated issue, and we really do need some DB / SQL experts to help us with figuring out how to page them correctly. The limit is 300, but only for the top-level comment fetch, which could also have different slices whether you sort by top, or new, and doesn't apply to the nested comments, which could have thousands.

The limit is a kludge, because ppl were creating thousands of comments, and without proper paging, it was affecting performance.
