Re: many databases or many tables

One table can handle billions of rows, so why split it up?

With/without lots of tables, there is effort to get to the desired table versus making the search of the table a little faster/slower.

Keep it simple by not splitting into tables; the performance is not enough to matter; it may even make it slower.
