We tested HikaShop with 10000 products and it run smoothly so it should be fine with twice that. It you have characteristics/variants for your products, that will make the products count increase greatly so that would require some stress tests... 2. Yes. In the "images" column, you can use: myfolder/image.jpg instead of image.jpg and the system will link the image in the folder myfolder of the "upload folder path".
