I don't pretend to know the general statistics, but my Emacs sessions 
(not counting the occasional short-lived instance) typically have two or 
three frames, but no more.  In a windowed Emacs, I find it 
counterproductive to have more than will (along with terminals and so 
forth) tile the screen, since they tend to fight over buffers and I have 
to go hunting.  In a terminal, I'm instead limited by how many window 
configurations I can keep in my head (but it's about the same number).
