We've used the Admin Tree Structure extension on our sites.  It creates an 
automatic year/month directory structure in the admin tools which helps manage 
directories with a lot of children.

It's part of this extension:

Subject: [Radiant] How to handle a 1,000 page site???

To Radiant Contributors,
Thank you for this awesome tool.

Question:
I am building a site that will be managing music, videos, pics,
articles, etc.  I am hosting on Heroku and using AWS for asset
storage.  I am using many radiant extensions to add the required
functionality.

Here is my question.  There will be 1,000's of pages (i.e. song and
video pages).  Is there an extension that makes indexing more
efficient/user friendly.  In other words, in the tree view, not having
1000 children under 1 parent.  I can index alphabetically, by date or
by category, but I will still have 100 children that will expand under
the parent.  Are there any extensions that help make managing this
many pages easier or more efficient??  Or even provide searching
capabilities within the admin site???

Thank You In advance for your input.

Could you perhaps post a screenshot somewhere that shows how the admin 
looks with that extension running? The page display on the admin side is 
one of the chief reasons I decided to move a client's site to Wordpress 
and it would be lovely if I didn't have to continue moving the site. 
Wordpress is a nightmare to build templates for. I miss radius tags so 
very much. All the PHP code in the layouts is melting my brain. And it's 
even harder to sift through all the crap plugins to find the ones that 
are actually useful.
