Well we also have an AI first code base, new product 160k "LoC" by the same measure. Not even a year old.

That 1.9m code base, within the same time frame as the 160k was created? <10k by the same measure.

10k I can comfortably throw at a local agent on my system (see recent posts in my history). Whether I can keep it that small is another question I suppose lol!

I agree 10K LOC is too little, I was saying "a few 10,000's of LOC"
