No, you totally misunderstood me. I said: "... if a file system allows
only 1M files, ...". I *never* said that your filesystem (NTFS) has such
a restriction! I guess that actual NTFS implementations will have limits
which are far higher.

And I was talking about the total number of *revisions*, not files. I
don't think that there are real projects which currently have more than
about 100k revisions. Probably WebDAV based projects using auto-commits
may have such big revision numbers.

Please read the following paper about file system performance on M$
Windows servers:

With best regards
