Hi Henrik, I just went and read that too - "links per inode" would include both directories or files or a mix of both. I checked the filesystem code for this, the ext3 inode is limited by a 16bit "links_count". Under linux (UNIX) a directory simply contains a list of names and their inodes (a "link") - there is no difference at that level between a "file" and a "sub-directory".
So, yes, that applies to files, too. Alex, can that number of db files be reached (likely, not probable, impossible)???
