8GB would be at least 100 million lines of code (upper bound with 80 characters per each line). For comparison Linux has 15+ million lines of code, PHP 2+M.

PHP's repo is around 500M. But I'd say it is probably tens to a hundred times smaller than Facebook should be, especially if you count non-public stuff they must have there. So comes out about right.
