 * I’m not a professional at this but I believe that WPMU can handle a lot of tables.
   Some blogs reach a thousand blogs. The database can still handle it. An example
   is wordpress.com – composed of thousands of blogs.
 * But going back to your question – there will come a time when you would have 
   to adjust the hosting to more significant traffic.

 * Not. Yes, eventually you’ll need a bigger server, and a better DB, but WordPress.
   com is running Multisite. It’s okay 🙂
 * (ianjayb, it’s Multisite now, not WPMU 😉 )

 * Don’t bump, please, even after 2 days.
 * There’s a limit on tables per DB, but you have to work hard to get there. But
   you know, you could look up things like ‘Maximum DB size’ yourself 😉
