Wine Is Approaching Six Million Lines

[dacha]

I am pretty sure the varying LOC figures, particularly the 3.0-3.4 MLOC, come from ignoring non-C files while Wine has a lot .h and .idl, and/or from ignoring blank lines and comments:

$ cloc .

    3818 files ignored.

The article does just say "lines" instead of "lines of code", so I guess it's kind of accurate. Although it doesn't seem like a particularly useful metric vs. LOC.

322 seconds?! Are you running cloc on a toaster...?
