I think the actual number is 65536 or similar — the 3 million may have been a misquote by TechCrunch.

Still seems like a ridiculous number, though of course far less ridiculous especially for Java code with its legacy of setters and getters for even basic properties and FactoryOfFactoriesFactory classes.

Trivial getters and setters shouldn't be a problem because the Facebook blog said they tried using ProGuard, which can inline Java methods.
