You're storing a ByteArray which stores 256bits per byte as a base64
string, which stores 64bits per byte.
Wow, still early in the morning here... :)
Ofc ,for binary input, a byte in a ByteArray stores the full 8 bits per
input byte, while a byte represented in base64 string format stores 6
bits per input byte.
Which means 25% overhead compared to raw binary data.
