Hi,
Managaing a lot of files is not a nightmare if you use/build the right
tools.
Why not saving filenames in the DB and then just using the ordinary web
server to deliver them? Getting the blob out of the DB and then serving
it through the web app is going to be a lot slower than letting, say,
Apache do it.
I wrote a system that kept 15000 files in a directory tree. You just let
your software deal with them....
