    int recordCount()
 </WRAP>
 The function ''recordCount()'' return the number of records returned by the last select statement, or -1 if the database driver does not support the operation.
+If [[v5:reference:adodb_countrecs|$ADODB_COUNTRECS]] is set to true before a query is executed, then the number of records will be retrieved, even if the function has to be emulated by issuing a ''COUNT *'' on the query. This can result in slow responses.
