+### Ranking algorithm

+fzf sorts the result first by the length of the matched substring, then by the
+length of the whole string. However it only does so when the number of matches
+is less than the limit which is by default 1000, in order to avoid the cost of
+sorting a large list and limit the response time of the query.
+
+This limit can be adjusted with `-s` option, or with the environment variable
+`FZF_DEFAULT_SORT`.

+```sh
+export FZF_DEFAULT_SORT=10000
