I've just discovered I wrote a couple of potentially useful blog notes about 
the costs and impact of flashback logging a couple of years ago:

We have limited space and may need to backout a build coming. The build 
includes a data migration. One option is to take a backout and restore from 
backup. The other options is a guaranteed restore point. The migration scripts 
are done by a whole other group. I have no idea how much archivelog will be 
generated.
