I seem to have run into an odd problem...
A client has a directory with a big-ish number of jpgs... maybe 4000.
Problem is, I can only see 2329 of them with ls, and I'm running into
other problems, I think.
Question: Is there some limit to the number of files that a directory
can contain? Or rather, is there some number where things like ls
start working incorrectly?
