				| It will take more time than it takes to transfer a 2 GB file, and less time than it will take to transfer a 100 GB file. |

Are you running on a small Windows box, a Linux system, z/OS or Power7? Local disk or network storage? 10BaseT or 100BaseT? What size CPU?
 
 
Why not just run a 30GB file through your FileOutput node a couple of time and average the timings? All we can tell you is how long it takes us to work a 30 GB file. _________________ Honesty is the best policy.

At one GB per second, it will take thirty seconds. _________________ http://leanpub.com/IIB_Tips_and_Tricks

No, it will take a little more than 30 seconds. Transfering is one part, overhead time needs to be added to the transfer time.
 
 
total time taken =  30 + overhead .
