# Which issue does this PR close? Closes #9435 # Rationale for this change `total_buffer_bytes_used()` only counts non-inlined strings (> 12 bytes), so it returns 0 for arrays of short strings. This makes it unsuitable as a capacity hint when pre-allocating output buffers (e.g. in DataFusion's `concat()`/`concat_ws()`). # What changes are included in this PR? Adds `total_bytes_len()` to `GenericByteViewArray`, which sums byte lengths of all non-null values including inlined strings. # Are there any user-facing changes? New public method on `GenericByteViewArray` (and by extension `StringViewArray` / `BinaryViewArray`). -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
