And what's the largest piece of code that you've written?
Written as a single app, about 80K lines of Perl code.
Joined together into a single complex system, and maintained it? LDAP, DHCP, Samba, IMAP (Cyrus, UW), Sendmail, Postfix, amavis, clamav, FTP (Proftpd, WU), httpd, RADIUS, a RDBMS, a backup system, custom Java, PHP and Perl applications, Tomcat, Cisco switches and routers, CMTS, remote access servers, DNS, webcaches.
Throw in legacy M$ Os and badly written apps without sources while things are in transition. It makes me sick and clients very God fearing.
I had a buncg of Windows boxes, and at that time there were no management tools for those systems. Had to do everything by hand, instead of being able to treat every process as a library.
