The image archive we have online on an HFS partition, & it has about 800k images divided into 2 sets of 100 folders (small + Large), so about 4,000 jpegs in each sub folder.(there are 40,000 _current_ listings Jesse)HFS, OSX work fine. On old MACOS the finder would choke and die on about 1000 and take the entire system with it because it was not multithreaded. But there's nothing wrong with HFS' performance.Don't get me wrong, opening one of these folders in the GUI is a somewhat painful experience, but I daresay it's better than NT's performance doing the same thing. ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
