If you think of a FID as a 32-bit number, the filename on disk is normally just that value as an 8-digit hex number, with the leading zeros suppressed. Under the new layout, the first five digits are used as a subdirectory name, and only the final three digits are used for the actual filename.

So, old way: /drive0/fids/12345
new way: /drive0/fids/_00012/345

Both ways now work with the playlist browser in khttpd in Hijack.

Curious, how big would your playlist/amount-of-files have to be before this layered FIDs to appear faster? (When does the number of entries get to noticibly slow down the kernel?)

Me.
