What is the vertical spacing caused by the intertext or shortintertext command?

begin{align*}
intertext{what is the vertical spacing here?} \[-30pt] 1+2 \
=3
end{align*}
end{document}


There is an automatic vertical gap that the intertext command inserts. I would like to know how many pts that gap is to exactly get rid of it with the \[...] command. -30pts is close, but it appears no integer value works and the ams manual doesn't specify the exact spacing of the intertext command.
