I've been tracking "elf production" over the last few days. I ensured that every elf was collected until I got the "no more" message (this involved turning off all buildings, props and ground textures so the eleves hidden behind buildings, and there are a lot of them, are visible).
The current rate is 3 elves / 15 min or 12 elves/hr. Plus there are the additional 4 elves every 4 hrs. So that works out to 52 elves every 4 hours. (Which also happens to be the max cap, since when I left the game alone for more than 12 hours, that is what the max was). This can be as much as 312/d.
If this is the rate you're getting, consider yourself lucky. Most people are getting only 6 elves/hour, as indicated in a number of other threads on this forum.
