A Google dev once told me that every day they write as much code as the whole kernel contains.

  A quick math tells us that every employee (that includes non-technical people) of Google would have to write around 200 lines of code per day, which seems completely implausible in a company with a heavy software development process.

    The order of magnitude is off but the scale is still much, much higher. I think they have billions of lines of code.

    maybe if you also count tests, that's not very unreasonable.
