Michael, In the past I have always used 128 MB for the ASTURW partition size, but if your flash media is >= 2GB I'd start using 256 MB to be more future proof.
The next release of AstLinux (1.1.3) will include a command to install optional packages onto ASTURW, the first (only) package will be Asterisk Flash Operator Panel (FOP2) support, which takes about 10 MB. Sound files are also stored on the ASTURW partition (10 MB +) , as well as any locale data via set-locale ( 2 MB).
