I don't know how big logicals are but in Java, they're supposed to be 1 bit.

As far as the Java language they are 1 bit.
In the usual implementation scalars are 32 bits,
which is more efficient. I believe array elements are 8 bits
in most implementations, but they could be 1 bit.

You are not supposed to be able to tell, other than running
out of memory.
