Total download size of TeX Live full installation on Linux 64-bit?

I was installing TeX latest version, but didn’t realise the amount of files that were going to be downloaded. According to this site, the total installation size is 7GB+. But it doesn’t mention the total Download size. Does anyone know the total download size of TeX Live full installation on Linux 64-bit? And if it is too large for me, then is there any way to pause installation and resume it later on?

This is the site from where I am following instructions for installation.

>Solution :

When you press run sudo apt-get install texlive-full the download size is "3.5Gb" more or less.

Just try it and cancel to double check by yourself and your own distro.

It is difficult to predict bc it requires a huge number of dependencies that you may already have, or not.
