the > 10 GB pawned password hash list, which requires nearly 20 GB after decompression. The API does not transfer the queried password or its full SHA1 hash to the server, but only the first 5 characters of the hash. This allows to retrieve the full password hashes that match that prefix (typically in the order of 500) and then to check whether the password to test matches any of the hashes returned.
