Not too bad. I had 2003 (iirc) loaded into 7.4 at one point.

What db version are you using, how did you load it (ogr2ogr?), is it in
postgis form? Fun questions, all of them. :)

I guess your upload pipe isn't very big? snail-mail is slow... :)

Using the new functions in 8.1 which provide size-on-disk of things,
hopefully there's also a function to give a tuple-size or similar as
well. It'd be a high estimate due to dead tuples but should be
sufficient for a progress bar.
