Hi Anthony I think they were meaning 10 million for the entire library or consortium. Not a single desk. So to work it out, you would need at least 57 circulation stations doing one circ a second on average constantly for 8 hours a day, every day of the year. So more realistically, you would need a consortium or library that had at least 100 circ stations running. So a pretty big library/consortium.

It is impossible for single circulation desk have 10 million transactions annually. 10,000,000 transactions / 365 (days) / 8 (hours) / 60 (minutes) = 57 transactions / second
It is impossible for any human being and machine.

Everyone -
As a question of personal interest, does any library or consortia running Koha have an annual circulation of over 10 million transactions. If so, could you please reply with library name and number of circs.
Thanks.
