Trait ByteSize 

pub trait ByteSize {
    // Required method
    fn est_bytes(&self) -> usize;
}

Trait for estimating the memory footprint of a type.

Returns the estimated number of bytes occupied by the object in memory, including all owned data buffers, masks, and nested structures.

For types with directly calculatable sizes (e.g., n * size_of::<T>()), this returns the exact value. For complex types, this provides a best estimate.

Required Methods

fn est_bytes(&self) -> usize

Returns the estimated byte size of this object in memory.

This includes:

• Data buffers (values, offsets, indices)
• Null masks (bitmaps)
• Dictionary data (for categorical types)
• Nested structures (for recursive types)

Does not include:

• Stack size of the struct itself (only heap allocations)
• Arc pointer overhead (counted once per allocation, not per reference)
