Althoug you can have unlimited address, in my opinion it's not a good idea.
I think it is useless have so many address.

My wallet.dat file is 2.7mb no clue how many new addresses i have in it but it takes a lota time to start
even when it says verifying blocks and loading wallet file takes like 2-3 minutes in it.
So i say probably not the best idea but if you are having no issues in loading and whatnot sure wth.

I find the wallet.dat grows very quickly when you have a website generating unique addresses for each order. Then basic functions, like -rescan, start to take a CRAZY HUGE amount of time. Bitcoin really isn't scalable at all Sad
