Hello!
Salamat sa response! i made a script that created 1
million files in a subdir..first thing i noticed is
that ls takes a very, very long time to respond, and
the wildcards won't work("string format not supported"
error)
i read in the kernel docs that the practical upper
limit for max files in a subdir is somewhere between
10-15k; beyond that and performance becomes
unacceptable.
Is this the same case with other fs like reiserfs?
