Hi,

We are using CouchDB in our new project but there's question raised that
how much space should I prepare for a couchdb database?

My simple example is:
1000 * 1KB document that will be appended to database in the beginning of
each day and each document will be updated every hour a day (i.e. 24
revisions are kept for a document).
So can I know how much disk space at most will be used in this case?

I understand that the disk space is not as expensive as before and
compaction can be done every day to save the disk space. But if we don't
have a basis to know how much the disk space will be used, then the whole
system may run into a 'out of space' situation and it is unpredictable when
the space will be run out.

It is appreciated if you can shed some light on the rule about how estimate
the maximum disk space for a couchdb database.

Thank you!

Regards,
Panny
