Some time ago I did estimates for Spacewalk 1.1 and came to formula
* 250 KiB per client system,
* 500 KiB per channel + 230 KiB per package in channel (i.e. 1.1GiB for channel
with 5000 packages).

It might be slightly lower number nowadays because we optimized
changelog data storage which was quite hoggish :).

I found the following in the Satellite 5.4 install docs:

A single 6 GB tablespace is recommended as more than sufficient for most installations.
* 192 KB per client system
* 64 MB per channel

For instance, an RHN Satellite containing 10 channels serving 10,000 systems would require 1.92 GB for its clients and 640 MB for its channels.

Database storage needs may grow rapidly, depending upon the variance of the following factors:
* The number of public Red Hat packages imported (typical: 5000)
* The number of private packages to be managed (typical: 500)
* The number of systems to be managed (typical: 1000)
* The number of packages installed on the average system (typical: 500)
