Feature Request – Refinement for Splitting The Sitemap

From other threads, I have read that you intend to add the ability to split sitemaps into smaller sitemaps, which is allowed by the Sitemap protocol.

The protocol gives a maximum of 50,000 urls per sitemap, with multiple sitemaps linked via an index.xml.

But 50,000 urls still produces a sitemap too large to be displayed by shared hosting servers, which typically limit allocated memory to 32 MB. 32 MB may only hold about 2600 urls before the memory is exhausted.

So this feature request is to allow the user to set the maximum number of URLs to be contained in a sitemap before it is split. That way, the user can adjust the sitemap size to fit the allocated memory size.
