I understand from your words that you're more worried about overall filesystem 
size rather than the number of files, yes? Is the number of files  something I 
should or should not worry about?
i.e., what are the differences (in stability, recoverability, performance, 
manageability... etc) between a 25TB filesystem with 2^35 files and a 25TB 
filesystem with 1,000 files, each 25GB?

I don't think we anticipate problems, but I'm not sure there are a lot
of people who have done this, yet.  We do know of such limitations in UFS,
and other file systems, which do not exist in ZFS, by design.
