So I was hoping to do some data analysis on some things in planet.osm for a class project. I knew it was a large data set but now osmosis has been running for 2 weeks and used disk space is up 475 GB. I am kind of wondering how far it will go. At one point I saw someone on IRC estimate "200 GB" - obviously that went out the window last week and two lvextend/resize2fs commands ago :)
So does anyone have a definitive answer on how big a full apidb import of planet.osm is? Using the whole planet for my project is probably not practical at this point regardless so I will focus on Kansas only to begin with (takes maybe 2 hours to import) and then maybe expand to more of the US if time permits. But I still haven't killed osmosis and if it is almost done I think I'll just let it go for the fun of it.
