    Yes, all pages are 8kb in size.

    Limitation probably to keep the size of the index tree down. Wouldn't make any sense to have 8kb index key, the index tree would be incredibly deep and very inefficient.

    What about the remaining free space? Around 7 Kb of space will be empty or will it contain any information?

    Is the statement is correct that you have provided?

    Thanks,

    🙂
