    Since 1 db contains a few million records alone.... I'm going to say millions.

    On my former job it was somewhere on the range of 5-6 billion rows, out of which 3.6 was in two tables of about 1.8 billion each.

    Current job not nearly as much in the dbs I work with but probably quite a lot in some of the other ones.

    To be honest, I couldn't tell.

    Largest I can easily remember was ~ 560 GB, in my first job. Since the database contained the order information, a large chunk of it was in a single table (order items followed by the order information).

    We switched at some point to UUIDs, which I remember because it was extremely painful, due to being close hitting the INT (Int 32) unsigned limit and BIGINT (Int 64) unsigned was for many reasons a very very bad idea.

    The rest... From small to big and everything in between.

    The number can change quite drastically if you normalize it or not.
