If there is a lot of partitions in the index page, index_list may grow large
and require large contiguous blocks of memory, because it's based on
std::vector. That puts pressure on the memory allocator, and if memory is
fragmented, may not be possible to satisfy without a lot of eviction. Switch
to chunked_vector to avoid this.
