Pathological case is this: * Install Fedora 19 right now, just before F21 is released * Basically every package on the system gets updated I think allowing 2Gb for updates is conservative, if anything. After the update is complete, you're right, the installed size of the system is only a few hundred Mb larger than what you installed, but to download and apply the updates you need get all those packages ahead of time; hence the large extra space required. For me, 10Gb seems entirely reasonable these days for an entire OS and all the apps you're every likely to install. Compare to Windows 8, where OS + MS Office + Corel is much greater than 4 times this.
