The way I see it, it's more a question of manageability (zillions of
files are a bit complicated to keep track off) and of limits, if any, of
the software you are using for backups (and parallelism too,if you can
have any). Forget about performance, think about backup, and also
consider that one day you may have to recover everything as fast as
possible, it may shed a new light on the issue.
