Total Search Count Varies When I Navigate Through Search Result Pages

Valid on all operating systems

Symptom:

I searched the knowledge database using the Federated Search mechanism (SharePoint 2010). As I navigated through the results pages, the total search count varies from one page to the other page. Though the total count must be consistent through out the pages.

Solution:

This is a known behavior in SharePoint 2010. For more information, use the following URL:
