------------------------------------------------
bq.since there is some overhead still for the 2MB byte[] chunks. In this 4G
test, there are 20K of them.
If the MSLAB is turned off, then do we get much closer estimate? Just asking.
> We are grossly overestimating the memstore size

> While testing something else, I was loading a region with a lot of data.
> Writing 30M cells in 1M rows, with 1 byte values.
> The memstore size turned out to be estimated as 4.5GB, while with the JFR
> profiling I can see that we are using 2.8GB for all the objects in the
> memstore (KV + KV byte[] + CSLM.Node + CSLM.Index).
> This obviously means that there is room in the write cache that we are not
> effectively using.
