I don't know the answer for a fact, but I must admit that the reading
I've done has never suggested that there _is_ any such limit.  The
limitation is in the number of inodes available on your filesystem.  You
can see inode utilization by using the df(1) utility's -i option.

Anyway, I'm giving you this answer in the hopes that someone will jump
all over it if I'm wrong . :-)

Ciao,
Sheldon.
