Approximately 2 inches in length by the time the fish is 4 months old, however the growing rate greatly slows after this period (although the fish will continue to grow until about three years of age) and every goldfish is different so there is no way to know exactly how fast a particular fry will grow.

Goldfish swim at a rate of 6-8 mph.
Gold fish aren't that fast unless their prey is coming and they are tyring to get away and don't wanna get eaten.
