After much discussion and consideration between hackie & myself we've converted our message storage system to use a *single file rather then a file per thread. The BIG benefit of this is the fact it makes the message storage directory manageable rather the having thousands of files, in the same dir which would cause a problem when trying to do anything with that directory.
This also, eases the file system work somewhat since multi-thread pages such as selmsg.php & search.php need to open/deal with a single file pointer rather the several.

*Single file the message will be stored in 1 file until the file reaches a size of 2 gigs, at that point a new file will be created and new messages will be stored in it until it too reaches the size of 2 gigs.

This way your forum's message count is not limited by the file size. Not that 2 gigs is small by any means, by my calculations 2 gigs message file is enough to store ~2million messages.
