Other than time-to-traverse, I'm not aware that Exim itself has a limit.

Your file-system DOES have limits, but you are probsbly not even close to it by
two or more orders of magnitude.

EX: Just did an 'ANALYZE VERBOSE brownlist;' and find 954,773 IP-based records
here, though those are in a PostgreSQL DB, not raw fs.

At 5k IP's, not sure a Database Engine would meet 'payback' criteria.

If this is a fairly static list, OTOH, a CDB or such might be a better move than
*either* flat-file or SQL RDBMS.

HTH,
