Hi gang,
Situation:
I've a HTTP server. I intend to run a file upload service. There could be up
to 10000 subscribers. Each saving files up to 10 MB.
I made a proof-of-concept service using PHP & MySQL, where there is a single
database, but many tables - a unique table for each subscriber. But I
realize that I may land in trouble with such a huge database. Would it be
better to have a separate database for each subscriber?
On top of the replies you already have you should read these pages:

http://bobfield.blogspot.com/2006/03/million-tables.html
Though you're not talking about those sort of numbers, you need to be
aware of those limitations (there were more posts on planetmysql.org
about this but I can't find the original page).
