The problem is that whenever I add new index I cant estimate how much extra
disk space is required for new index.If there were a way to get size of an
existing index than before adding a new index I will be able to
estimate(using existing index size) how much disk space I need for new
indexes. So if there is not enough disk space I would know in advance that
adding new index might cause problems or effect performance.
