If I do 10,000, would they still all show up?
10K transaction is still a trivially small amount of storage.
They will still show, but don't expect your client to perform very well when you start to have that many.
Ask anyone who has been running a Martingale betting bot. After a while it just bogs.
The next version of the Bitcoin.org client (next after v0.7) will likely include a combination of changes that will help with this (LevelDB for performance and ultraprune for reducing disk space requirements).
Ah, interesting. Thank you.
Wait wait... people who run Martingale betting bots still have money left? ;p
Good to know that the feasible size is good for most everyone save "power users" and that even for people who put a lot of bets and so forth out there that the client can be adjusted in time to handle that kind of load / record keeping. Thanks!
