that pretty much depends on what you want to do with them, and what kind of
performance is acceptable. it also depends on the efficiencies of the
algorithms you use. there's no magic number, it really depends on how you
will be using the databases, etc.
one of my apps allows the user to create as many databases as the user
wants. since the app only actually deals with one database at a time, the
only part that can be affected by a large number of databases is the list
view that enumerates all the databases to let the user open one. but i only
need an O(n) algorithm to build the list of databases. so any decrease in
speed will be purely linear in nature for my app.
