No. Nuxeo's S3 blob storage is not designed for file management. We store blob based on a hash, which allows for de-duplication and optimizes space. Note that the initial blob creation time is available as a metadata of the blob in S3 (Last-Modified).

I think it's a bad approach to have millions of files in one folder

Why? It's not really a folder, it's a bucket which can have an arbitrary number of documents. Its goal is not to be browsed.

Do you have statistics on how to work with a large number of files, are there any problems, slowdowns?
