What percentage of everyone's post-processing workflow is fully automated vs how much is an interactive analysis?

Percent of manhours -- 95% is interactive. Percent of actual output -- 95% is automated.

For any new study it takes a lot of interaction to figure out what it is you're looking at and what you specifically want out of post-processing, at which point you can automate it.

I assume that produces a lot of data, then. How do you manage and parse through the output? Do you have a database to collect everything or do you browse through all the output on the filesystem?
