Rivers, MB
Crop type, yield, moisture, truck size your dumping into, combine size, # of combines, and field size/location of trucks in field will affect your decision. We grow wheat/canola/peas/oats/sunflowers and the only time our hydraulically driven grain cart (that's pulled by a quadtrac) causes an issue for our combines is in high yielding oats. Brent 774 grain cart with a 16" auger. 2 sets of hydraulic lines on the tractor are combined to run the cart. Glensts's estimate of 150bu/min is probably pretty close although at times I think we'd be pushing 200 bu/min in dry oats or canola or sunflowers.

150 bu/ac corn with a big combine with a wide header. Doubt you'll be happy.
