It seems logical that so many ebooks on the ereader can be problematic in a number of ways.

The number of ebooks that you can contain on your ereader and still have it function normally has expanded considerably. On my K3s, 600-700 seemed to be the limit before you started getting sluggishness. I have 1,600 ebooks on one of my Voyages with no apparent sluggishness once the indexing was completed (this is a test, I don't actually like having that many on there). I presume, but don't know, that the newer units have chips with faster processors.
If I could get Collections to work in a logical way for me, I too would have all my books on an ereader. But it doesn't, so I never have more than about 100-200 books (usually entire series) on any one ereader with the exception of the ereaders that have the Kobo and B&N collections (those have about 450 books each).
