Here is another way of looking at it. According to SCImago country rankings 
for 2014, the US output was 494,790 citable items while China had 438,601 
or 89% of the US amount. See 
<http://scimagojr.com/index.php>http://scimagojr.com/index.php Select 
country rankings, then 2014, then refresh.

China's output has been growing rapidly for the last decade, so it looks 
like it could pass the US in just 2 or 3 years.
