ikonic89: how large is the database? The charts showed disk utilisation % but would be interested to know raw sizes.

Sorry for the late reply :) Looks like we have between 20T and 25T of data, combined across all MySQL databases. And somewhere in the region between 60B and 80B records. Edit: this is just for data that's used all the time. Almost nothing is dead, just sitting around.
