Asteroid tracking limits?

This is more a question for the testing team and developers than anyone else at this point, I suppose. How many asteroids can you have tracked at once? I don't remember seeing anything posted by the developers saying, which is why I ask. In theory I guess it should be "unlimited", or at least whatever the upper limit is for flights in progress (which I'm pretty sure nobody has ever managed to hit anyway), but just the same, it would be good to know if there's a definite limit to how many can be tracked at once.

considering 32 bit memory limits. And that ksp is around 1.2 gb atm, and taken into consideration of amount of memory a single asteroid could take

around 4-5k I guess.

I'm only guessing here.

are asteroid shapes procedurally generated or we have just few templates?

As many as your computer can handle

The "limit" is probably on your PC performance. Lots of ships slow things down, lots of flags slows things down, so lots of tracked asteroids will slow things down.

Also, unless you actually visit them I believe they'll move out of tracking range and vanish.
