Add note on per-segment field name overhead

Open DaveCTurner opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

We encountered a case where a substantial fraction of the heap usage was due to per-segment-per-field FieldInfo objects, particularly FieldInfo#name. This commit adds a note to the sizing docs about this overhead.

Relates #77466
