I was reading an old dredge manual from the 1950s and found out the first big suction dredge could move over 500 cubic yards an hour, which blew my mind for the time.

Wow, that's a crazy amount of dirt.

Jennyp19 would know, my idea of a big load is just filling my car trunk.

Actually, that's a pretty normal load for a standard dump truck.
