I am using Great Stuff Pro foam in a can. This stuff is different from the smaller cans of Great Stuff, because it does not come with a straw to attach to the can, but the cans are larger so you get more total foam out of each Pro can.
I purchased a "pro" gun from a seller on Amazon called AWarehouseFull, which cost me a few bucks less than buying the Great Stuff model, but the two work identically.
As for how much foam I have used so far, I have done everything shown in the picture (about 4 joist bays), plus the rest of one side of my attic, which I would estimate was another 10 or so joist bays. I am still on my first can. I'm guessing the first can will not last all the way through the rest of the attic, as it feels quite a bit lighter now that I am done with one side of the attic. Even so, I'm already quite impressed with how much foam I've gotten out of just this one can so far.
I highly recommend using a pro gun of some sort if you're going to be using Great Stuff. The smaller cans that come with a straw are a pain, because they are a "one and done" and have to be used all in one sitting before everything hardens up in the straw. The straw cans also dribble foam as you are in between sprayings, which makes a huge mess. The pro gun has zero dribble when you aren't pulling the trigger. There is also an adjustment knob to control how thick of a bead of foam you want to spray.
If you do go the pro gun route, be sure to buy the cleaner! If not, your gun will foul up and become unusable.
