Github user paul-rogers commented on a diff in the pull request: https://github.com/apache/drill/pull/761#discussion_r103335368 --- Diff: exec/vector/src/main/codegen/templates/VariableLengthVectors.java --- @@ -238,6 +238,25 @@ public boolean copyFromSafe(int fromIndex, int thisIndex, ${minor.class}Vector f return true; } + @Override + public int getAllocatedByteCount() { + return offsetVector.getAllocatedByteCount() + super.getAllocatedByteCount(); --- End diff -- `super` is called only if the super class holds an actual buffer or nested vector: not all do. A sanity test is done in the sort: we compare the calculated memory allocation with the actual memory delta when "taking ownership" of a batch. We get an error if the numbers differ. That check ensures that the calcs in each vector type are correct.
