In an attempt to see how quickly parallel resources could generate, I built a database of all my dictionaries using Logos' index files. As a consequence I've been able to run some statistics on the dictionaries in my library. I thought some of you might find them interesting.
This sample size is all 125 resources that have headword indexes in my library. The total number of headwords is 1,373,181.
