### Describe the usage question you have. Please include as many useful details as possible. I'm working on a streaming service that accumulates blocks of Arrow data, dumps them into Arrow Streaming IPC format and then writes them into network socket. The data is accumulated in `[]array.Builder`, which converts into `[]arrow.Array`, then into a single `arrow.Record` and finally into `bytes.Buffer`. The key part of this algorithm is the separation of a new block: we need to know when the previous block is large enough (but not too large - because it could exceed message size limits in this case) to let us stop data accumulation in `[]array.Builder`, serialize existing data into `bytes.Buffer` and send over the network. So is it possible to estimate the number of bytes accumulated physically in `array.Builder`? Or may be it even possible to forecast the size of a future `bytes.Buffer` containing serialized data from `[]array.Builder`? ### Component(s) Go -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
