# Using JSON-API / XMLRPC with large WordPress database

 * I’m using the JSON API for WordPress plugin. I am using this to pull data into
   my phone app.
 * Since my wordpress database is huge, the JSON strings returned are in turn very
   big and cause my app to crash.
 * Is there any way by which I can receive the data in parts? I was wondering if
   there was any way to split the JSON string into smaller parts and then load them
   on-demand into the app.
 * This would avoid loading large amounts of data at once and causing it to crash.
 * (I could also use the WordPress XML-RPC interface to extract data if the above
   is possible with that)
 * Can anyone point me in the right direction? I feel hopelessly lost.
 * Thanks a lot!
