Hi all,

I couldn't seem to find a place for FUD user questions, so I'm hoping someone is willing to help me here.. Here's my question:

At this moment, we are running phorumon a busy community site (100k pageviews/day; > 100k messages in the database). I've been looking for a new forum server and FUD definately has all the features that I am looking for. BUT....

The fact that so many items are stored on the filesystem instead of in the database (message bodies, user settings) scares the heck out of me. For example, it seems like each thread gets stored in /data/messages. What happens when you have more than, say, 1000 threads? Are they all stored in the same subdirectory? Or does FUD create 'buckets' like for example message 1-500, 501-1000 etc. I'm afraid that I'm not sure if our operating system (FreeBSD) can handle that.

Is there something I've missed while installing? Maybe it's possible to force everything to be stored in the database?

Does anyone else here have experience with running FUD on a large site?

Thx,

B@rt
