There are good reasons to store images (especially small ones) in
databases (and with careful management of headers in your mod_perl).
Some of you have missed inherent problems with the file systems
even balanced heirarchical tree - ones in a shared server
environment which can lead to gross efficiencies - in your cases
you may not be doing multiple deletes - but in the examples I work
with it is not the creation and storage which breaks the file
system, but the requirement to clear our old files before filling
up the file system.
If you have "proper" metadata, you can go and delete your files.
In our case, we chose to hash our paths by basically user-id,
so every file owned by a user is in the same folder and
can be deleted without any problems.
Maybe I didn't get your point.
