Perkeep (née Camlistore) is your personal storage system for life: a way of storing, syncing, sharing, modelling and backing up content.

Before the files were stored in directories like sha1/012/345/sha-012345xxxxx.dat, meaning there were 4096 (16^3) top-level directories, each with up to 4096 child directories. We never really did the math, and the result millions (up to 16.7 million) directories with 1 file each. Now the hashing structure is only 256 wide (two hex digits). If we considered 4096 files in a directory acceptable before, that means the new scheme can go up to 256*256*4096 files (268 million), which is about 512 times bigger than my personal Camlistore instance now. Larger users should probably be using the diskpacked storage backend, anyway. On start-up, the code now migrates the old format to the new format.
