Hello,

we have an performance issue, sometimes our server has a lack of
performance.
Operating System Windows 2000 and Windows 2003 (both give the performance
problemens)
When opening the Explorer and only the drive which contains the files (not
the folder) the explorer is using 50 - 90 % of the CPU and the memory is
fluctuating between 60 and 110 kb, it fluctuates continouisly.

I think that the problem is caused by this :
We've an application which uses in ONE single folder more then 105.000
folders, each folder contains ONE single file.

I told it to our programmers but they don't see any problems with it. I've
some questions :
** 1 ** Has Microsoft a recommendation about the maximum number of files in
one folder?
** 2 ** Which performance counters are the best to use to monitor if this is
a problem?

thank you in advance,

Marco J.L.
