What is the maximum number of entries that can be in a hosts file?

The maximum number of entries in a hosts file is not strictly defined, as it can vary depending on the operating system and its limitations. However, practical limits often arise from system performance and memory constraints rather than a specific numerical cap. Typically, hosts files can accommodate thousands of entries, but performance may degrade with a very large number of entries. It's generally recommended to keep the number manageable for optimal system performance.
