hammer with millions of files

[Justin Sherrill]

We've had some people using Hammer on pretty large volume, but I don't know
how they compared to what you are doing.

The biggest collection I've directly used Hammer for is for building
pkgsrc, which was some 10k packages, times at least 4-5 files for each
package, plus the files from building and the output - Hammer worked fine.
 The biggest danger was that the fine-grained file history tended to fill
up the disk when I compiled all of the packages.  Since every file change
was tracked, it ate disk quickly - which was fine after tuning the settings.

DragonFly install images are live, so in theory, you could test this out.
