You got nothing to worry about...

It all depends on your system hardware and OS.. E.G Memory, Hard Drive Space....

Some people even reported they got over 5 billions records in a single table.

Hi Nhan. In the manual is written:
"Handles large databases. We are using MySQL with some databases that contain 50,000,000 records and we know of users that uses MySQL with 60,000 tables and about 5,000,000,000 rows"

if you don't belive me look here: http://www.mysql.com/doc/F/e/Features.html
