I think Les’s estimation is very close. Of course individual eyes may detect slight variations lower than this. But this will be very subjective.
I have spent time comparing the views through 140 and 152mm refractors and could detect only a very slight increase in brightness in the 152mm scope. Here the difference is 18% and one had to spend time looking for the difference.
