Unfortunately, that external link doesn't exist anymore (this doesn't depend on us).

Doing a quick google search there are several simlar links about the matter:
https://devblogs.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20040709-00/?p=38493
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/8283401a-fdae-46e7-a446-b468ec4e66bc/windows-installer-estimatedsize-registry-value-after-application-upgrade?forum=winformssetup

At any rate and as already discussed with the link I reported previously;

- You may use the "Get Component Space" command to get the space requirements of a component previously defined by the Define Component command.

- Then once you get this value, this may be stored into the following location of the target system registry:

HKLM (for ALLUSERS=TRUE)
HKCU (for ALLUSERS=FALSE)

\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Uninstall\\$TITLE$
EstimatedSize (INTEGER)= $MYSIZE$
