Take AD for example, its MaxPageSize = 1000 by default, which means each search cannot return results more than 1000. The problem is that you might have no idea of the value of MaxPageSize for a given LDAP server and you might accidentally set pageSize > MaxPageSize, e.g. 1500 > 1000.
AD will automatically trim the 1500 to 1000 and return only 1000 results each page. That's OK and doesn't hurts anyone.

A sequence of paged search requests is abandoned by the client:
sending a search request containing a pagedResultsControl with the size set to zero (pageSize=0).
sending an LDAP Abandon operation to abandon one paged search request in progress, but this is discouraged.
walking away without informing server, definitely this is strongly discouraged.
