I believe that 20 million items would be a record for a DSpace repository. At Georgetown, we have more than 500,000 items. A majority of these items contain only metadata which may have simplified the issue for us. We have found DSpace to scale very nicely so far.
I believe that the University of Cincinnati also has a very large DSpace instance. You may want to cross-post this question to the dspace-general list to reach a wider audience.
