You could use the Media Save event and push each item across to the other site(s) upon saving a media item.
But, I think Frans idea of combining the two is probably the best option unless you need them to be separate for some reason?
I have worked on a Umbraco project in the past with over 80,000 nodes and never noticed that much of a performance hit.
The only issue from time to time is if you have a massive content tree, with let's say over 10k nodes, then you may wait a minute for the tree to render.
It was never that much of an issue, to be honest, and that project pre-date the new ListView option, which should speed things up a lot.
Share media folder
Hi
Has any tried sharing the umbraco media with two different installs of umbraco.
I have a client that has two umbraco sites but wants to use the same media files in both sites.
I'm thinking I may need to hook into the media save event and save to both databases... hoping there is a better way

We always use a multi site install for that. I don't know how big the sites are but you could merge them in to one installation.
For one client we are running 3 multilingual sites in one installation. Works like a charm.
How big is your site?
I think if I combine all the nodes together then around 15000 nodes... maybe that will be too much?
