As a matter of fact it is interesting to compare the number of classes
in the last releases of the descendants of Smalltalk 80:
* Cuis5 (480 classes),
* Squeak 5.2 (2713 classes)
* Pharo8 (*9084 *classes)
I don't think the last Pharo vision statement:
/A system with robust abstractions that a single person can understand./
is in anyway realistic.
Now, will Pharo9 reach the sky with *10'000* classes? Very likely if you
observe the graph below:

Just a reflexion that I’d like to share here.
When Hilaire talks about complexity. I have to agree too, even if I
like the progress under the hood, and explored spaces like GToolkit.
