Subject: File limit inside a single directory

Hello, i’m using a CMS which puts many files inside a single directory. I’m wondering what the maximum number of files is which can reside inside said directory. Is there a number which should not be exceeded on account of performance reasons e.g. Is there a difference between ext3 and ext4?

Thanks!
