Oh, the expansion rate? The (N + 1) piece is at least 7 times the size of the N piece in terms of nuber of database slices, but for the 6-piece Gothic Chess db, each slice will also be at least twice the size as well, since we need 16 bits per position. The other bloating factor is the number of positions, which will be at least 4o times the number of the 5 piece.

So the 6 piece will be about 7 x 2 x 40 = 560 times the size of the 5-piece.
