Separate Database Tables For Different Post Types

So the only reason you want to re-architect WordPress to use multiple tables for different post types is because your posts table is getting bigger too fast? I assume the underlying issue for you is that performance is suffering?

Instead, I suggest adding appropriate indexes to the post table for the queries you are finding unacceptably slow. This will be a whole lot easier and you won’t have to have a nonstandard version of WP to deal with for everythi.g else you want to do.

Here’s one reference to help with indexing.
