[TYPO3-dev] typo3temp with 100000 or more files?

[Valery Romanchev]

Hello

I see one TYPO3 installation with custom extension and 300000 usefull files
in /typo3temp folder (resized images).

Of cource it is not good to store resized images this way, but I think that
the problem is common: some large sites with shops can face this problem
with 100000 images.
(this large number can be a problem to filesystem).

All this images in typo3temp is usefull (so not good to clear typo3temp).

So what to do?
May be consider to use
/typo3temp/00/
/typo3temp/01/
/typo3temp/02/
...
/typo3temp/99/
(or the same with 000 - 999)
Files can be placed in a folder based on some md5 fuction that produce
"uniform" distribution.

What do you think of this idea?
