[Pulp-list] Space needed by yum repo ISO exports

We use the export distributor in pulp_rpm[1] to export yum repositories
as ISOs.

Sometimes, if many of these exports happen concurrently on the same
host, we find that the filesystem containing /var/lib/pulp/working runs
out of space.

Is anyone able to provide some estimate on the amount of space required
for these export tasks?  For example, is it expected to be the sum of
the size of all RPMs in the exported repos, multipled by some constant
factor?
