I guess it depends on the tree. I picked some this past year that averaged the size of cherry tomatoes.
Supposedly them persimmons are good when ripe but they have to be almost mushy. I took a bite out of one that wasn't ready yet and it was TART. That thing took all the moisture out my mouth for awhile.
