Almost exactly the same mass as earth, plus there's more energy to work with, since its closer to the sun. I'd rather start with too much than too little.
Also, there's a nice feature where the upper atmosphere has the same temperature and pressure as earth at sea level. Not enough oxygen, but colonists living on blimps would be much much much more comfortable than on Mars because they'd just need an oxygen mask to be "outside" (on an unpressurized blimp). We could do this right now... Mars needs 100x more steps and planning to put people on it.
