I was a bit confused when I saw the total TX number for the last 24 hours on blockchain earlier which was around 300k and that does seem extremely low. Perhaps it's the middle of the weekend and that's why.

i am not talking about number of transactions.
i am talking about "size of each transaction" which seems to have grown lately. in other words transactions, instead of being 250 byte to 500 byte are 2000 bytes and more.

if you check a couple of those blocks you can see these gigantic transactions with 4400 and 5500 bytes each and more.

Maybe you should check information in block #453720 carefully. If you're not lazy, you can find many transaction with many outpots, usually pool pay their miners, faucet/casino make payment or another big company/service process many transaction at once.

well kudos to 1Referee for finding the transaction and i guess to you for finding the block number

and it actually explains the 114 transactions but what i said in OP i had these transactions in mind:
i was refering to transactions such as these:

https://blockchain.info/tx/36cfe63b97eca9d5b2e3943698effac3b40e97ca9e19ef7b2fc1b452b9644a08

or even very big ones such as these:

and without automation, it is not about being lazy, it is about this process being impossible to do.
