A lot of times! :-P
I think last time I generated them I had to run them on a machine with 256GB
RAM.
So... probably 200G of data?

It's not just availability of main memory. I have access to machines with
multible TB of memory. That's not really the issue for _me_.
But depending on how the simulation system is built, an FFT based noise
generation system that requires the calculation of noise values before the
run of the actual simulation might or might not feasible.
Generating noise samples with arbitrary time correlation online in a
streaming fashion has plenty of advantages, not just memory usage.
