I cited this interesting paper from Facebook engineers(2013) in another comment :

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7648802

In 2011 they had 10 millions LoC, up to 500 commits a day,

but if we asssume the plots keeps going up like this, now in 2014 it can be pretty big.

Their binary was 1.5GB when the paper was written.
