[email protected] Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Hi There, I have a requirement(and a program is running) to put a large number of files( of small size) under a folder in Windows 2003. When the program runs the system becomes very slow. I would like to know what is the maximum number of files that can be there in a folder. Can anybody suggest some possible problems? --JJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[email protected] Posted January 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 yes that was helpful...Thanks a lot....But I have one more doubt.....As the number of files in a folder increase will there be any kind of performance issue that can occur?--JJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hb_Kai Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Probably a little, but it's just loading the folder, counting the files and displaying them. That's if any. Moving them all at once, even with software may take a little time though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
