On June 19th 2019 I made a post titled Arithmetic Derivative and in this post I'll return to the topic. I was prompted to do so by one of the properties of the number associated with my diurnal age today. The number is 27265 and it has the property that its arithmetic derivative, 11448, has no digits in common with the number itself. I've listed these numbers in an entry in my Bespoken for Sequences.
I'm not going to pursue that topic in this post but I was reminded of arithmetic derivatives and got to thinking about records being set by the size of arithmetic derivatives as the natural numbers are traversed. It didn't take long to develop a SageMath algorithm to explore this topic (permalink). Detailed results are shown below in Table 1 with derivatives up 40000 in size, although the algorithm lists the records for numbers up to one million.

The record setting sizes of the arithmetic derivatives form OEIS A131116 and the initial values are as follows:
4, 5, 12, 16, 32, 44, 80, 112, 192, 272, 448, 640, 1024, 1472, 2304, 2368, 3328, 3392, 5120, 5376, 7424, 7744, 11264, 12032, 16384, 16640, 17408, 24576, 26624, 35840, 36864, 38656, 53248, 58368, 77824, 80896, 84992, 114688, 126976, 167936, 176128, 185344, 245760, 274432, 360448, 380928, 401408, 524288, 528384, 589824, 593920, 770048, 774144, 819200, 864256, 1114112, 1130496, 1261568, 1277952, 1638400, 1658880, 1753088, 1851392, 2359296, 2408448, 2686976, 2736128, 3473408, 3538944, 3735552, 3948544, 4980736, 5111808, 5701632, 5832704, 7340032, 7520256, 7929856, 8388608
Table 2 shows a graph of these numbers:
