Comment (by arma):

 Yep, there are definitely cases where you want to know how much of
 something there is total. In the above url, it's easy because you can just
 move the box to say "display 100 of them", and there are only 88, so you
 get them all.

 But for other aggregations, like
 https://metrics.torproject.org/rs.html#aggregate/as , there is no way to
 show all of the entries at once.

 Maybe that argues for having "all" be the last option in the "how many"
 dropdown box? And then if you want to know the total of all of them, you
 can ask it to display all, and then go look at the total? Or would that
 blow up browsers on huge lists, like blutmagie does?
