 Here are estimates for different element types and quantization levels:

-`element_type: float` with `quantization: int8`: `num_vectors * (num_dimensions + 4)`

 If utilizing HNSW, the graph must also be in memory, to estimate the required bytes use `num_vectors * 4 * HNSW.m`. The
 default value for `HNSW.m` is 16, so by default `num_vectors * 4 * 16`.
