Note that '''callExtension''' arguments sent packet size cannot exceed '''2^13 bytes (8192 bytes)''' no matter what extension is used. This might cause confusion for devs using database extensions on sending big data. Here's some table of data sizes:
<br>
'''ASCII''' = 1 byte/symbol of data  (Arma uses 8-bit ASCII)
<br>
'''UTF-8''' = 2 byte/symbol of data (Such as Russian Cyryllic uses 16-bit encoding)
<br>
'''Digits''' = 1 byte/digit of data (considered as ASCII symbol so is counted as 8 bit, not 1 bit of data).
