There's no specific limit: the total number you could possibly support
depends on the capacity of your hardware and how well you can tweak
the kernel settings.

Practically speaking, you could certainly support dozens, and maybe
hundreds of addresses on a single machine.  The only way you'll get
any hard numbers is to run some experiments.
