FUDforum looks like a great package, but I'm wondering about performance for large forums.
We run a forum (using a different PHP/MySQL based forum package) that has 100,000+ threads in it -- each with multiple replies. Is FUDforum able to handle forums this large with reasonable performance? I noticed that FUDforum threads appear to be stored in the file system, and have found that in the past that access times to files in directories with more than a few thousand files in them tends to get slower and slower the more files are added.

Yes, FUDforum will work fine on large scale forums, take http://www.mediaminer.org/forum/ for example, which has over 150,000 messages.
FUDforum unlike some other forums you may be familiar with stores all messages inside a single file, within which it seeks. Thus there are no issues of having many files and so on, which undermine performance on very large forums.

The same here: 188324 messages in 12309 topics, and works like a charm.
