The book in numbers

Contents

A few figures from the installation this book draws on, offered as a sense of scale rather than a specification. Every number below is a single snapshot — read on one day, from one running system — and has moved since.

MeasureOrder of magnitude
Documents heldSeveral hundred
Passages, once split and gatedTens of thousands
Concepts named in the graphIn the tens of thousands
Graph nodesLow hundreds of thousands
Graph edgesOver a million
Asserted relationshipsTens of thousands
Named relationship kindsEleven
Degenerate passages, at the worst point measuredRoughly a quarter of the corpus at that time

Figures are rounded deliberately. They are offered to show behaviour — that a graph this size is unreadable without a map, that a defect this large is worth a permanent gate — not to specify a product.
