How about you? ;) Total source size is a bit tough to estimate (there's a lot of dead code, possibly as high as 70), but I'd guess about the same or a little more for the base server (an embarrasment of grotty riches in the language and VM code I'm afraid, the DB and threading/event engine are the only really clean bits), and then another 3Gig for the base DB and other supports (possibly 80% dead code there).
