+Estimate disk space requirements when running sos report. This can be valuable
+to prevent sosreport working dir to consume all free disk space. No plugin data
+is available at the end.
+
+Plugins will be collected sequentially, size of collected files and commands outputs
+will be calculated and the plugin files will be immediatelly deleted prior execution
+of the next plugin. This still can consume whole free disk space, though. Please note,
+size estimations may not be accurate for highly utilized systems due to changes between
+an estimate and a real execution.
