Do it yourself.

1) Make a copy of a database.
2) Increase (or decrease) the amount of rows in an RRA.
3) Compare the size of the copy with that of the original.

Each row in an RRA contains all DSes.  This means the change in size
should be <number of DSes> times <bytes per entry>.

Get the current number of DSes and RRAs from "rrdtool info".

communications style that is natural to people who are more concerned about
solving problems than making others feel warm and fuzzy.
