I've been reading through the docs, but can't find any information that realtes to how much data this application will collect. Does anyone have any experience they can share?

We are refining the numbers still, but generally we are seeing less than 100MB per filer. The most significant consumer of your index capacity will be your performance metrics, and generally, these are somewhat linear to the number of filers. Lots of variables though. I plan on changing how the collector works, so we're not going to really give good numbers until after that happens, I expect.
