How MANY urls can I bookmark in Firefox 12?

I just upgraded to Firefox 12 and am considering shifting a number of the urls in my "history" to bookmarks instead of constantly forwarding them in the 3-month history package (I understand you no longer can choose the length of history maintained).

Before I go ahead, I want to know what is the maximum number of URLs you can bookmark in Firefox 12?

There is no limit for the number of bookmarks that you can create.
It may be better to use copy and paste in the Library to copy history items to a bookmarks folder.

Thank you for your response. You said: "It may be better to use copy and paste in the Library to copy history items to a bookmarks folder." How do I do that? Thanks.

Just select the items that you want to copy with the mouse or the keyboard (Shift + cursor Down or Ctrl + left-click to select individual items).
Then you can copy the selected items to the clipboard via Ctrl+C or the right-click context menu.
Go to the bookmarks folder where you want them and paste them via Ctrl+V or the right-click context menu.
