The Wisconsin Court System is not a prominent enough user to make
the Wikipedia list mentioned in another post, but each day we
execute about 80 million database transactions against about 100
databases distributed around the state.  Many of those transactions
involve using a cursor to loop through large result sets; so, while
I don't have hard numbers on the number of SQL statements executed
each day, it would probably be somewhere in the neighborhood of a
billion.
