Tom in answer to your question.
A D800 NEF is approximately 46.3MB in size.
When opening in CS6 the file size for the Photoshop Doc (why dont they call it a file?) is claimed to be 103.4MB

I hate to think what might happen other than complete bogging down if you opened 1800 D800 images at once.  Scratch disk would probably melt down (200GB instantly taken) then of course some new Layers and its bye-bye to 1TB.


JK-

With the xp1 RAF files, which come in at 19mb, I wind up with a 91mb PSD file.

Does Nikon do something radical to make their file expand at a smaller per centage?
