My experience was 30 days of deleted item retention roughly doubled the IS size, 60 days roughly tripled it, and 90 days roughly quadrupled it. But it was not a scientific study. There was statistically a very limited sample size of one server.

My concern is the impact that it could have on the size of the information store. I realize it's impossible to tell precisely, but I was hoping to hear some experiences of what happened when others have turned it up.
