   ### Is your feature request related to a problem or challenge?
   
   As I noted on https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/pull/9025  
https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/pull/9025/files#r1468533266
   
   There is a custom allocation pattern in `VecAllocExt` that doubles the size 
of the allocation each time
   
https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/blob/d594e6257b34a5ad47112e26d41516aaeb19e6dd/datafusion/execution/src/memory_pool/proxy.rs#L39-L50
   
   The actual rust stdlib also uses ths approach, but appears to handle 
overflows better :
   
   
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/fb4bca04fa1bde2f7db1b31a59e066f7bebd7fc6/library/alloc/src/vec/mod.rs#L1918-L1929
   
   
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/fb4bca04fa1bde2f7db1b31a59e066f7bebd7fc6/library/alloc/src/raw_vec.rs#L405-L436
   
   
   Thus I don't know why we have our own custom doubling implementation
