We have 7 DBAs. 105 production databases (97 24x7), ranging from 2 GB OLTP to 800 GB data warehouses. 395 devl/alpha/beta databases ranging in size from very small (1 GB) to production-sized. About 1/3 of the production databases have at least 1 (usually more) development effort going on at any given time.
Most of our time (lives?) is spent just keeping things up and running. The on-call guy averages between 50 to 100 pages per week (record is in the 230-range). Tuning and testing new stuff is fairly uncommon - as we have time.
