I
make a custom table for each attribute with relevant relational tables and then pull/push the data with the umbraco.BusinessLogic.Application.SqlHelper() class.
or

use a single documenttype
with template to create thousands of child documents each containing
an item record with all the related content via datafields.
What
is the way to go? I think the second method would create to many nodes and slow
the system down?

or
I use a single documenttype with template to create thousands of child documents each containing an item record with all the related content via datafields.

Go with custom tables and have a look at Examine to index and search with your custom datasource
