wow, 500 ways and 50,000 addresses just for one street ! Show me the map !

Not unreasonable, FWIW. CA-138 in CA is a ~170 km (~106 mi) primary surface road through mostly rural and some suburban area. It currently has 48 ways, but I'm working on processing a survey I did, which will probably break it into many pieces because of turn restrictions, speed/weight limits, etc. If addressing were added to it, I'd guess 10-200 address points per mile (you do the math).

Foothill Blvd (CA-66) is a little shorter, but through well-developed areas with many more breaks in jurisdiction (and therefore restriction changes), not to mention far denser in terms of address points.
