Description
Dear developers,
I'm concerned about number of images in /files/tex directory and possible degradation of file system performance when I will have thousands of rendered images.
I think it might be a good idea to use wikimedia-style for the structure of /files/tex directory:
/math/4/0/c/40c4f3fd4e90d666f43f275de6264a1e.png
For example, I suggest to store file not as
/files/tex/817d737bb6d842b687933c6c58901de4770f3e1e.png
but as
/files/tex/8/1/7/817d737bb6d842b687933c6c58901de4770f3e1e.png

This is probably a good idea, and I'm about to start active development on this project again, and I'll fix this asap.
