    Mysql tables

    Is there a major decrease in performance on the server if there are thousands of tables with a small number of records?

    What is the really the max number of tables i should have in a database?

    I am interested in the performance, but is using to tables to automate a process not displaying a web page using php and mysql.

    Cheers

    Andrew

    I would say, there shouldn't be a performance gain with going with one huge table. There is a 4gb limit on the size of a table however.

    Hope that helps
