The number of items in a feed is unlimited, but practical limits should be observed. A 1MB feed places a burden on feed readers, especially if there are many such feeds. Under 100K is ideal, and 250K is fine. Use your judgment. If you need to provide older items, consider using pagination and `next_url`.
