My guess is 1st-degree polynomial. There’s a constant addition with each iteration, plus the contents appear to be base64(ish)-encoded into the next URL, which multiplies the length by a constant.



It's original_size * growth_factor ^ iterations

I would say it's exponential in iterations. Growth factor is probably <2
