PLoSONE publishes ca 150 papers/day and I would assume SWJ covers a number of subjects. There are many "established" journals with high publication rates. For example Tetrahedron Letters (which only publishes chemical syntheses) can publish 50 papers/week (7 papers per day) http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/journal/00404039/56/2 (and a 2-page paper can cost 41 USD for 24 hours read) If that is aggregated with Tetrahedron (the same subject matter, but longer papers), then Elsevier can publish over 100 papers in chemical synthesis alone in some weeks.
