This won't help with the original poster's problem (which is in
helping
the kernel to cope with huge directories). The OP's problem is at the
kernel level, locate is an application (albeit a nice one).
My reply was about how to update the directory index after adding it
to a ext3 filesystem.
The original poster's problem was about large _files_, not
directories. ext3 can handle large directories without problems
(except that the maximum number of subdirectories in one directory is
fixed to 32000). Also, files opened with O_LARGEFILE, can be up to 2TB
on ext3.

I all pedagogikk er det essensielt at pensum presenteres
intelligibelt. Det er et elementært imperativ for alle pedagoger å
unngå eksessiv anvendelse av idiomer med fremmed opprinnelse. I de
fleste tilfeller eksisterer adekvate og relevante synonymer på norsk.
