Wait, are we sure about the database split? That could change everything!

I agree, 215 sounds about right.

575 seems way too high for just three subsystems.

I think it's definitely more than 35.

I feel like the answer might be 215, but I can't quite recall the exact reasoning behind it. I hope I’m not mixing it up with another question!

I think the application size could be influenced by the unique functions of each subsystem, but I’m a bit confused about how to quantify that.

This question feels similar to one we practiced about a multi-location system. I think we might need to consider the shared functionalities in our calculations.

I remember we discussed how to calculate application size based on the number of subsystems and their functionalities, but I'm not sure how that applies here.

I've got this one! Merkle trees allow for efficient block lookups and prevent data tampering, so A is definitely the right answer. Glad I remembered that from the lectures.

Hmm, this looks tricky. I'll need to think through the file path logic carefully to figure out what's happening.

Ah, the joys of software architecture questions. Next, they'll be asking us to calculate the number of coffee cups consumed during the development process.

Seriously, 35? That's like a single function! This must be a trick question. I'm going with B) 215, just to be on the safe side.

This is a tricky one. I'm going to have to think it through. Wait, did they mention anything about the size of the core functionalities? If those are shared across all three subsystems, then C) 195 must be the correct answer.

I don't think so. The unique functions are specific to each subsystem, so they wouldn't impact the overall size.

But what about the unique functions in each subsystem? Could that affect the overall size?

I think you're right. The core functionalities are shared, so the size must be 195.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. If the databases are physically split and maintained separately, wouldn't that increase the overall application size? I'm going to go with option A, 575.

The application size is definitely 195. With three separate subsystems, each with its own unique functions, the total size must be the sum of the core functionalities and the unique functions of each subsystem.
