 * Hello!
 * I have really interesting question about media folder.
 * Example i want build e-commerce website where will be around 5000-10000 pictures
   in media folder.
    How it will be handle with loading time ?
 * And here is my plan about media folder, how it will be, if i put media folder
   in another server ? It’s will be better for loading time ? or its will be the
   same ?
 * How i know, the first will be loading website content and then loading pictures
   from another server. Or it’s will be the same, when media folder will be in the
   same server ?
 * Thank you !

 * WordPress is designed so that it does not load all media files at once. Don’t
   need to worry about having many pictures.
 * Make sure you have enough storage space and optimise the image size.
 * There are plugins allow you to offload pictures to cloud storage.
