Initial data pull API consumption typically requires ~100-200 API calls to fetch up to 5 million records per object with less than 200 columns. The time taken is variable, but on average it takes approximately 1 hour per 1 million records.

Ongoing data pull API consumption varies, but typically requires less than 200 API calls to fetch ongoing data. All ongoing syncs are typically executed around midnight GMT.
