I had a test w/ flat structures and the performance went down after 3000 sub-tables per table. But that could be the memory consumption, I ran the first tests on a smaller machine (64MB).

I recall reading postings in a discussion flat vs. deep table structures, where performance will be more stable with deep structures.

Now I use this record structure: 

LW:\gdb.root\gdb.tablename.["000"].["000"].["000"].["000000000001"].field

For every 1.000 records I get a new parent, etc. Each record retains its full recId, so I can construct the real position out of its name. Maybe I´m wrong and this tweaking is not needed, but my db will get transaction data in this sizes.

Thanks for the tip, I´ll try it
