>500M lines of quality 2EE code in 3.5 man years of development in 9 months
elapsed....
500,000,000 / (365 * 3.5) = 391,542 lines per day
391,542 lines per day * ~10 characters per line = 3,915,420 key bangs per
day
3,915,420 key bangs per day / (86400 secs/day) = 45 keys stokes per second!
Man... you really are a coding god! :-)
