This faq is not very helpful. I really need to know the values for each
type of column, and then how much to add for the overhead. It only
gives a single example, and does not address the index size. Nor does
it give the storage size for the various column types.

Anything better out there, or has anyone have a script/spreadsheet that
will calculate this?

Thanks

TIP 9: the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your
joining column's datatypes do not match
