What was the relative scale of the impact of the Century Attack on Lagrange?

(My intuition, from what little info I could find, is that the attack was roughly comparable to a tornado or bad earthquake: a noticeable (but not apocalypticly large) number of deaths and a good deal of (mental) injuries, and some lingering long-term environmental damage/things you needed to be more careful about for a while...)

I Remember The Rattle Of Dry Grass:

The Century Attack of 2399 took the form of a wide-scale crash of the individual instances on Lagrange. In 2.8 seconds, the System automatically shut down entirely to prevent further propagation of the crashes. It took 13 months and 10 days to bring the System back online.

When full functionality was restored, it was discovered that 0.985\% of instances were unrecoverable. At the time of the crash, the total number of instances was approximately 2.3 trillion, meaning that approximately 23 billion souls were lost. Of this, approximately 39\% (8.9 billion) were instances of an entire clade being wiped out, whether because the instance was a tasker with no up-tree instances or because the clade was simply incredibly unlikely. This does not, however, take into account long-lived instances that had their own lives separate from their down-tree instances, individuals in their own right rather than ephemeral lives.

The loss was sizable, and, as it became apparent, some tens of thousands more quit out of despair as they realized that their loved ones or family had been destroyed, only adding to the total losses.

Life, as always, went on as best it could, and we learned to live with our new lives of lack and fear.
