I found this interesting, so after some googling, these are the numbers I found: QNX kernel = 23 KLOC, C [1] Plan9 kernel = 50 KLOC, C [2] Squeak VM = 9 KLOC, Smalltalk [3] (Squeak is a Smalltalk) Note, those are the kernels - Smalltalk's 20 KLOC include the whole system (GUI, etc), IIRC. For clarity, I'm a bit out of my depth here, and I'm assuming that the Squeak VM is a bit akin to a kernel. And surely one could find more authoritative references for it all.
