For purposes of later calculations, figure table volumes and database volumes for inbound and outbound queues separately. Or, calculate the volume for outbound queues and use that figure as an approximation for both inbound and outbound volumes.
The upper bound for each table can be generated by multiplying the update rate on the table by the size of the longest message. This gives you the upper bound of the table volume.
InboundTableVolumeupper = (Max[InboundMsgSize] * ChangeRate)
OutboundTableVolumeupper = (Max[OutboundMsgSize] * ChangeRate
where:
Max[InboundMsgSize] and Max[OutboundMsgSize] are the sizes of the largest inbound and outbound message in bytes (typically, the message size with the largest parameters).
ChangeRate is the maximum number of modifications to the table per time period.
