That depends on the amount of packages you have installed. Therefore we 
can't tell you a certain number. As an example, I have upgraded a system 
yesterday which had a lot of additional packages installed. The download 
was about 1GB. But before the program started the download, it told me 
the download size and asked if I wanted to proceed. So if the download 
size is too big for you, you could cancel the upgrade at that point.
