To be fair, most of that is from src/lib/netlist/generated/static_solvers.cpp, which is a machine-generated file to allow the solvers for the circuit equations to be compiled in advance rather than generated at runtime; that makes the solver run quite a bit faster. On the other hand, if I'm reading this pull request report right, Antny's total seems to have missed some major chunks of human-written code, so it looks like Aaron really did write nearly 10,000 lines for this. Wow. Just, wow.

But having schematics is a hell of a lot better than working without them. They should be verified and may have to be corrected, sure, but trying to do this strictly from photographing and tracing boards? Yikes!

Basic framework is clearly done enough to use, but couriersud still has plenty of ideas for improvements and expansion.
