I have a bunch of user files in the hundreds of thousands and will probably explode into the tens of millions (maybe a few orders of magnitude more) that I am saving on disk.

Obviously we are using a hierarchy structure but are wondering
1. what are the limiations we should impose on the most number of files that any one sub-directory should have?
2. Do a summation on sub-dirs or does that even matter>

Thanks!
