    A bit of napkin math. Complete SWAG because I don't know how talented their data designers are or are not.

    - placeable id: 4 bytes
    - posittion (x,y,z): 6 bytes (3 half-floats)
    - rotation: 2 bytes (another half-float)
    - dye: 2 bytes (just in case)

    14 bytes per object. At 200 extra objects that's an additional 280 bytes per interior. Assuming the 21,600 figure is correct for number of apartments per world the additional storage budget would be a whopping 6Mb per server.

    *hands a quarter to Square* keep the change.

    I fixed some simple math errors in your post.
