That share will be used to store all the files related to the running Virtual Machines. This is disk images, checkpoint files for save/stop and context image.
Disk image depends a lot on what do you use. Checkpoint files are the size of the ram the VM uses and some hundred of megabytes more. Context image is usually less than a megabyte if you don't add files to it using the context mechanism.
