How much computing resources does an ABySS run take

Question

[muralis.bio]

Hi,
I have Illumina short read (paired-end) data with 127x coverage and mate-pair (3K & 8K) data of total 450 GB FASTQ files for a plant genome with 1.2 Gb size. Can anyone give me pointer on how much of computing resources (time duration for the run, storage space reqquired for outputfiles etc) does an ABySS run take.

Thanks in advance...
