Hello,
Check this Thread:
https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/forums/endpoint-protection-11-definition-update-size
Again, you can also check this Article:
http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH102211
It states as below:
What are the sizes of the various packages that are sent between the Symantec Endpoint Protection client and manager?
The following are estimates of the size of packages that are sent between the Symantec Endpoint Protection client and manager:
For more indepth understanding, you check the Log.liveupdate (incase of SEP 11.x) and Log.lue (incase of SEP 12.1)
Log.liveupdate could be found under -
Windows 2003: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Symantec\LiveUpdate
Windows 2008: C:\ProgramData\Symantec\LiveUpdate
whereas,
Log.lue could be found under -
On Windows XP and Windows server 2003:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection\<silo_id>\Data\Lue\Logs
On Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows Server 2008:
C:\Program Data\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection\<version number>\Data\Lue\Logs
Look for "estimated file size" and This file size will indicate the total package size that was requested from the SEPM.
NOTE: The value would in bytes, so if full content update will be around 77 MB (77,000,000 bytes).
Hope that helps!!

Some information about that - this articles has been updated recently:
Drive Space used by Virus Definitions Updates
http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH141811
Folders used to store virus definitions on SEPM:
- Liveupdate downloads them first to: C:\ProgramData\Symantec\Liveupdate\Downloads\
- SEPM stores its copy in: C:\ProgramData\Symantec\Definitions\SymcData
- SEPM folder for definition dristribution to clients: C:\Program Files (x86)\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager\Inetpub\content\
- SEP clients store its definitions in: C:\ProgramData\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection\CurrentVersion\Data\Definitions\
... those are examples out of 64bit OS - for 32bit use Program files instead of Program files (x86), for OS older than 2008 Server use Documment and Settings\All Users\Application Data instead of Program Data.
Thank you for marking your solution.
