Indication that the iCloud messages are downloaded after disabled

What is the indication that your iCloud messages are Downloaded after iCloud is disabled on iMessages? So that we can delete them from iCloud to create storage?

after I have disabled sync for Messages on icloud (Settings, iCloud, Messages, OFF), the synced device would download the iMessages on the synched device. I am trying to understand when would the device finish auto downloading Messages on this device(since iCloud sync on messages is disabled) so that I can now disable and delete

settings —> iCloud —> Manage account storage—>Messages—>Disable and Delete
