I wonder if it is larger than gcc. Gcc 4.2.0 has 6489 strings for translation.I just tried this command in the top-level Emacs directory: grep -hR -A1 "^(def" lisp --include="*.el" | grep -v "^--" | grep "^ \"" and got 30594 lines of output. And this is only the doc strings; there are built-ins defined in C, prompts, literal `(message FOO)' messages, calls to `signal' and `error', etc. So yes, Emacs is _definitely_ larger than GCC. Much larger, almost by an order of magnitude.
Thanks for the data. This might be a problem in itself. I don't kow how large a gettext compiled file can be with reasonable performance.
