Nope. The only real difference would be that the files that store your
tables would then be in separate directories on your db. That's probably
not a concern for you, unless you're talking about thousands of tables.
If you're in that situation, I'd say you've got bigger problems.
So the question is, which is easiest for you to maintain? You decide that
one.
