AlloyDB for PostgreSQL

Fixed

Memory usage estimation is more accurate for high-dimensional vector indexes. This fix prevents out of memory (OOM) errors by enforcing defined memory constraints throughout the index build process. You might need to increase your maintenance_work_mem settings to align with the real usage estimates.
