Well, in my original post (GGGP) I've defined "a library" as "a .so file" so what I can say is that the 872 distinct .so files used on my laptop will be shared among the different processes that use them.
If you assume the same library can be duplicated in two different .so files, then 872 is just an upper bound on the number of distinct libraries and further sharing could be done.
Eitherway, that is a significant amount of code sharing, which was the original question in this thread.
