The largest application I've written was around 200 KLOC, but that was in 6800-assembler, one instruction per line. My current work application suite consists of around 34K lines of perl code, and is much more complex. I'd say LOC can be mildly useful as a very approximate measure of the complexity of an application, but that it is very dependent on the language and on an individual programmer's style. As a measure of productivity I'd rate it completely useless - my most productive days are the ones where I reduce the number of lines, while retaining or improving the functionality.
