Summary: It is hard to measure acutal memory usage by std containers. Even providing a custom allocator will miss count some of the usage. Here we only do a wild guess on its memory usage.

DUMP_FORMAT.md
## RocksDB dump format
The version 1 RocksDB dump format is fairly simple:
1) The dump starts with the magic 8 byte identifier "ROCKDUMP"
2) The magic is followed by an 8 byte big-endian version which is 0x00000001.
3) Next are arbitrarily sized chunks of bytes prepended by 4 byte little endian number indicating how large each chunk is.
4) The first chunk is special and is a json string indicating some things about the creation of this dump. It contains the following keys:
* database-path: The path of the database this dump was created from.
* hostname: The hostname of the machine where the dump was created.
* creation-time: Unix seconds since epoc when this dump was created.
5) Following the info dump the slices paired into are key/value pairs.
