Whats the largest amount of links you have seen?
I am just wondering what is the largest amount of links added to Links 2.0 that you have seen? I keep hearing that 5,000 is the top, but has anyone ever had more than that?

Also, can anyone tell me a good meta tag search engine to use to incorporate with links?

I had 6,500 once when I was trying to create a Yahoo! search engine (several years ago), but that is as far as it got. I encountered problems with the search function etc due to the data getting corrupted etc. A safe number would probable be around 2-3,000.

That really depends on your server performance. At the moment my database contains 4.000 links (21 fields in links.def) and still works like a charm.
