Bug #16629

Distributing uploaded images to multiple directories
0%
Description
Instead using single directory where images are being uploaded (uploads/pics), they should be distributed to multiple directories, e.g. uploads/pics/ab, uploads/pics/ac, etc.
The same thing is already done with 'pageCacheToExternalFiles'.
This should prevent performance degradation with large number of files per directory (file system issue).
This should be done for thumbnails (typo3temp/pics), and all other similar directories having large number of files, also.

Or even better: uploads/ should not be used anymore at all! DAM will provide a nice way to do this...

Sure, images with references would be ideal.
The problem is that dam_ttcontent is in experimental status:

I would be happy if at least different tables and fields would use different folders.
But neither that nor a new distribution scheme is easyl done as it would break backwards compatibility. You'll need an update script.

Yes, update script + new variable in localconf.php.
So it would be possible to completely turn off the new system, if it makes problem with old Typo3 installations.

No config var, just a changed TCA for pages and tt_content which share the upload/media folder and an update script.

As this report is very old, is the handling in newer TYPO3 CMS Versions (like 6.0/6.1) more like you expect it?
