(0 to 20++ billion triples, LOD or non LOD, microformats, RDFa, custom filtered etc) See the TREC 2011 competition http://data.sindice.com/trec2011/download.html (1TB+ of data!) or the recent W3C data anaysis which is leading to a new reccomendation ( http://www.w3.org/2010/02/rdfa/profile/data/) etc. trying to help. Congrats on the great job guys of course for the Semantic web challenge which is a long standing great initiative! Gio
