How quickly does it grow?

I've got a small piece and was told it will grow quite prolifically, but don't know if that's a over-statement.

Old thread, but I just wanted to point out, temperature isn't the deciding factor for growth rates with Java moss, it actually does better at lower temps. lol

Lighting is a bigger factor, I find it grows fastest in tanks with a lot of light, better that than algae though...
