Completely agree pressy. The limit is the number of inodes. In a UNIX system:
1 inode = 1 file
When you create a filesystem, you can define the number of inodes, but you cannot change it once created.
Take into account that no matter how much free space you have. If you run out of inodes you won't be able to create more files on your filesystem.
Regards.
