IIRC 2010 there was someone on this list reporting problems when a 
certain amount of files were created in a dir. He had to do with 
audio/video recording, where delays are important (not to have). At one 
point file creating time increased a lot, but I don't remember if it was 
a filesystem problem or something else. But as it was the only report I 
saw, I'd say you are right and a big number of files per dir doesn't 
matter anymore.
