Kind of funny, but I have seen code that is indeed read more than is run, at least for the first year or two of its existence. Code that is used for generating batch reports for some billing process would run once a month. But I had to spend a lot of time staring at it, wondering what is going on, and fixing things up as reports came in. One could say that the test runs were run more than the code was read (of course), but in production? Definitely the same order of magnitude for a long time.
