I concur with Stephen. We tend to split our tables when they exceed
100 million rows *if* they are experiencing performance issues, and
target them to be no more than 10 million rows each after expected
growth over the next few years.
I have one table that is very hot that is about 70 million rows I'd
like to partition, but it has many FK's pointing to it, which
complicates it considerably.
