Memory Consumption of a DataSet

Does anybody know, in quantitative terms, what the memory utilization for a
DataSet object is?

Here are some numbers to help. Suppose we had the following data in a SQL
Server CE database table:

- 800 rows
- 6 columns (4 of which are varchar(50) and 2 are plain ints)

How much memory should a DataSet based on this table consume on a mobile
device?
 
How much space does a balloon occupy? It depends on how much air is in the
balloon. The number of rows and columns in a DataTable does not affect the
amount of memory consumed by it nearly as much as the size of all the data
contained therein.

I don't need an exact number. What I am looking for is a ballpark figure.
Will it be in the kilobytes or megabytes for example.
