As i know the boolean size in 16 bytes {8 as header,1 payload ,* alignment to 8}
how much does it take if the boolean variable was an array …

Are you asking about
Booleanobject orbooleanprimitive? The size of the object might be 16 bytes (although probably implementation dependent) whilebooleanwill probably consume 4 bytes (intis implicitly used).Thus
boolean[]will consumeN * 4bytes (whereNis the size of the array) + some object header.Boolean[]will consumeN * 16+ header (according to your assumption onBooleansize.That being said consider writing your own array-like class and pack 32 booleans in one
int(you’ll have to write few bit operations manually), just likeBitSetclass is doing.
