It would depend on a great many things: string gauge, construction, components and probably the angle of the string....
Metal alloys used in the string, the heat treat on the metals, the scale length of the guitartry it and find out.

I have a Taylor GS model with medium gauge. Last time after I changed the strings, I put it into the case (loosen the 5th & 6th string tension with 47% humidity). Then I didn't play it for 6 months.

There quiet for a player with no calluses....
They are a light gauge, comprised of a silk core wrapped in steel.
