[snip] Server is running Linux, and PHP is constantly creating and modifying images in a directory. Apache is constantly serving these same images. There are about 250,000 of them in the same directory. Seems to be running OK, no problematic CPU load, but I'm wondering if anyone knows whether I'm living dangerously having that many docs in one directory with that much activity. It is an extremely busy server. Sorry is this seems like more of a linux sysad question than a PHP question. Thanks... :) [/snip] Two words.
