Does any one know what is the size of inventory that will start to give problems in using a viewer?

From what I hear, the biggest problem with inventory loading isn't the number of items individually but the number of items in each folder. Folders are fetched one at a time and if there's more than about 10,000 items in a folder it will often time out. You should also try to cut down on the number of folders in your base inventory not in subfolders - for instance, if you have 10,000 folders in your inventory you'll want to organize them in 10 subfolders of 1000 each rather than having them all on the main inventory level.

Yes like Theresa said the secret is folders, lots and lots of folders. I would go a step further though and not include more than about 100 items in a folder. Folders are items too so in a single folder you don't want more than about 100 folders. With 100 subfolders under each. Takes a while if you have a very flat structure. I beleive that there are some scripts floating around that can automate the process, but they just create tons of folders alphabetically.
