What is the OS, are you encountering issues with that many
files in one directory?  We've encountered limits in NT
around 12,000 and I'm curious if you're seeing a correlation
between number of files and performance degradation?

Right now, the files are in one directory on the HD. As the system gets
bigger, we will be adding additional disk arrays to the system. The database
has a field for each image indicating where it is located on the filesystem.
If the site grows more than I expect (1 million images) then there is the
capability of moving images to a separate network file server.

In what way? I don't have much experience with LDAP, but isn't it mainly
used for authetication?
