This depends on what you want to get for news groups...  It really has
nothing to do with Coherent, but is a reflection on how much space news
articles / history/log files take.  With a 3 day expiration on news,
with about 1100 newsgroups, I use around 120mb.  At work, with a 5 day
expiration, usage is closer to 200mb.
