For what it's worth, I've seen the wildest claims about installation
sizes in that panel. Mostly the installation size is severely
underestimated, but overestimates happen too - haven't seen anything
this bad though. I stopped trusting those numbers quite a while ago.
The reliable method is to check the directory size of your catalog
directories and the Postgres installation directory yourself.
