Subs.txt contains 15k lines
Results in 100+GB file with the enrich flag
So a max file output size and a max runtime switch would be great. Other than that the tool is awesome!!

@gprime31 , alterx already has limit flag to limit number of results

   -limit int      limit the number of results to return (default 0)

That's fine but how many results is say 52.4 GB? See the problem.

@gprime31 , on an average size of single subdomain) is ~30 Bytes (or even less) . so for 52.4 GB it would be approx 1.746 Billion . not sure about the use case but I get your point and we will try to add option -max-size

Did some testing and here are some rough values for reference:

-	-limit 30000000 	= ~ 1.7GB
-	-limit 100000000 	= ~ 5.4GB
-	-limit 200000000	= ~ 11.5GB
-	-limit 250000000	= ~ 14.7GB
-	-limit 500000000	= ~ 29.3 GB
-	-limit 1000000000 	= ~ 52.2GB

if anyone else needs it.
subdomain list = 15K subs.
