   Thanks @xudong963 that's a great point.
   I think the reason for picking number of rows earlier is that lot of other 
design docs talks about number of rows rather than the size in bytes. I agree 
it makes more sense to look at the size in bytes.
   
   The number of rows might be more often available as statistic than the total 
size in bytes. So I think we should look at the size in bytes if it is 
available and otherwise estimate the size based on the number of rows and data 
types involved (e.g. int32 -> 4 * number of rows)
