There is a limit to robots.txt file in terms of file size 500 KB as Vipin points out. A maximum file size may be enforced per crawler. Content which is after the maximum file size may be ignored. Google currently enforces a size limit of 500kb.

I am think that there is no limit but while searching on Google I found one article- in this John Mueller said Google has a limit of only being able to process up to 500KB of your robots.txt file. Am using the 500KB file robots.txt file very useful and making good ranking in my website.

Google currently enforces a size limit of 500 kibibytes (KiB). To reduce the size of the robots. txt file, consolidate directives that would result in an oversized robots.
