It depends on the original position.
If the pawns are blocked in the original position and you generate tablebases
only for future position than it will be clearly less than 4 gig.
If you have all the 5 piece tablebases than the future position that you do not
know the outcome of them are only future position when you change the place of 4
pieces(2 kings and rook and bishop).
