The number of inods you use is a tricky, tricky thing. You
can have a fuckton of inodes but they are smaller, which is
good if you have a lot of small files (like a mail server).
However, if you're dealing with larger files, larger inodes
will serve you better.
For the most part, I've not seen inodes become an issue; 99%
of the machines out there won't have a problem with this unless
something is really wrong (I've seen "too few inodes" errors
show up with situations similar to Mr. Hunters, for example,
but that is a symptom of a larger problem - and the machine
had small inodes).
