What do you mean about "100,000 files in a directory will cause you performance problems"?
NetApps (running the current code) have problems with directory files larger than 8Mbytes. How many files this is depends on the length of the filenames. I believe that they are tring to fix this problem
I ran into this on a filer that was running inn. the control/cancel dir had grown to 10MB and ther filer was hanging periodically with 100% cpu utilization
