That's a lot of disk space. How much will I need for each of those sets of files?

The exact requirements of each package can be found by using the LIST options in the download area.

The following lists the approximate disk space required for several major configurations, and additional storage required for some optional packages:

Execution-only environment..................330 KBytes
Developing C programs.......................8.3 MBytes
Developing C++ programs.....................12 MBytes
Developing Objective-C programs.............9.6 MBytes
Additional storage for gdb..................1.8 MBytes
Additional storage for FSDB/LadyBUG.........600 KBytes
Additional storage for flex.................340 KBytes
Additional storage for bison................400 KBytes
Additional storage for diffutils............280 KBytes
Additional storage for make.................430 KBytes
Additional storage for patch................80 KBytes
Additional storage for sed..................57 KBytes
Additional storage for Graphics libraries...5.8 MBytes
Note that you can save some storage by deleting unnecessary files after installing each package. Files which you generally won't need are in the src/ subdirectories, and the diffs/ subdirectory. For example, a djgpp directory which includes all of the above packages except most of the graphics libraries, takes about 12 MBytes of disk space instead of about 17 MBytes suggested by the above table.
