[get_array_memory_size](https://docs.rs/arrow-array/latest/arrow_array/array/trait.Array.html#tymethod.get_array_memory_size)
 returns the total capacity of all the buffers backing the array, e.g. 
https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/blob/master/arrow-array/src/array/boolean_array.rs#L305C44-L305C66
   
   If those buffers are slices of the same underlying allocation, as they will 
be in the above example, you will count that allocation multiple times.
   
   FWIW it is relatively trivial to rewrite an array if you so wish
   
   ```
   let data = array.to_data();
   let mutable = MutableArrayData::new(vec![&data], false, 0);
   mutable.extend(0, 0, array.len());
   let compacted = make_array(mutable.freeze());
   ```
   
   But at least in the example provided by @v0y4g3r the issue might simply be 
one of accounting
