DNS RPZ Zones limitation

Actually I'm having a problem right now, I have several RPZ zones, each
zone equals to one category (porn, drugs, guns, botnets, gambling ...
etc... ), I have almost 40 zones, and instead of combining all the domains
I would like to preserve each category in an individual zone file, but at
this moment I can only include 32 zones.

If I could load more than 32 zones, it help me to properly separate what I
want to block to each one my public IPs. I don't know if there's a
workaround for this.
