I was going to comment that Library Genesis went offline earlier this year, but I’m very happy to see that I’m wrong and it seems to be back.

Unlike wikipedia, they don’t offer a full torrent of the site, so it’s hard to estimate. I guess the closest point of comparison would be Anna’s archive index, since they have a rough filesize total?
