Don't get me wrong, I'm chuffed to mint balls about the D7 effort and the result, for many reasons, not least of which is the amazing talent represented by it. That said, I received a letter today from the hoster stating that my account was a performance problem because it had over 1000 tables. Eight Drupal sites coud be over 1000 tables. I have a hosting account with 'unlimited domains' and up to 25 databases. I use the account both for hosting several live domains, most multi site, as well as a test area that clients can access for testing changes to existing domains. 8 Drupal sites could be over 1000 tables with the typical array of add-on modules, let alone that most of these sites are doing e-commerce. I've let them know that they might want to consider a more meaningful indicator of performance issues than a script that counts tables, since probably none of these sites does more than 100 transactions per day. If they hold firm, I'll blog (and post here) their name.
