well mine was like 3 foot at about a year when i got him. he is now 7 foot and like 4? years old. once i put him on rats he ZOOMED in size. but i didn't power feed him. just normal feeding like every 10 days to 2 weeks. a baby though i would feed weekly.

as it is with any snake it will grow pretty much as fast or as slow as you want it to. extremes in either direction are not good for the snake. ive heard of diamonds reaching 7-8 ft in 2 years. if you dont want it to grow fast feed it reasonably sized meals every week or two if you do then feed it more than that, but be careful because you dont want an unhealthy animal.
