It's my magic constant :) I wanted to have more precise ETA for my usual database size. Yours could be different. What I discovered it will be never 100% true, it's only ETA.

Ok, thanks for the reply! 👍

Hello!
I don't know how to do merge request in gists, so write here.
String 36 needs to be changed to "-e "SELECT IFNULL(ROUND(SUM(data_length) * 1.09), 0) AS "size_bytes" " in case of return 0 instead of NULL if database has no tables. Because in this case in your variant numfmt in string 43 fails with "invalid number NULL".
