uhh.. i think mysql stays fast almost no matter what.. you can make it to like 100,000 and not see a difference.. but i don't know..

I think the main problem is the building.. i don't think Links are a problem.. categories are.. it will need to make more pages /dirs.. links only matter when the make more2.html etc..

i dunno.. i just don't think sql will get affected that much.. why else was it made..

you don't see ebay or yahoo slowing down.. (of course they probably have oracle.. but who cares )
