 > I don't understand how scalable will help... having many users means
 having a big database, so splitting the table of the users to many other
 databases on different servers will help, but I could not figure out how
 to do this...
 > Like facebook having 500 million users... build on a farm of thousand
 servers that do the same task...

 Most of the WordPress queries for users completely fall apart when you
 have a large number of users - this was trying to address one of those
 instances.
