There isn't a limit as such, so it depends on the capabilities of your
hardware. I have an old 7.7 million record RPZ zone here which
named-compilezone on my workstation loads in 32 seconds using 2GB RAM.
There are much bigger zones out there, e.g. .co.uk is hosted on BIND and
has roughly 9 million delegations. I won't guess how many records per
delegation on average :-)
