Perhaps more important than the number of inodes available is the
filesystem that the images are stored on. ReiserFS is really good at
one approach, and XFS is good with an entirely different approach.

Some filesystems are great at thousands of directories, and others are
great at thousands of files in one directory. So you do need to take
that factor into consideration - and ask what types of filesystems are
available to you on your hosted machine.
