This depends completely on the underlying operating system. I can't speak for others, but at least Linux ext3 handles up to 32000 directory entries. So if you anticipate more than that, you should probably switch to a database.

Is there a recommended upper limit of pages if you are using the

We are just rolling out our wiki to a small team (12 developers, probably 3-4 actively contributing) and it occurred to me that all pages are stored
in the same directory. If we get up to > 1,000 pages, would that be a
problem for the file system?

At what point should be switch over to a database?
