1. BINARY SEARCH (i.e. SEARCH ALL) always expects the table to be sorted.
2. If the table is not completely loaded to its max size, be sure to load HIGH-VALUES (if in ascending order) or LOW-VALUES (if descending). These HIGH-VALUES / LOW-VALUES at the end of the table ensure that the table is in SORTED order.
3. If the table is not in sorted order, BINARY SEARCH results are not predictable.
