FYI regarding Auto-read size:

I was wondering too, so I've traced it in the code and it ultimately comes from SQLite's Length() function:
https://www.sqlite.org/lang_corefunc.html#length

Short summary courtesy of https://www.sqlitetutorial.net/sqlite-functions/sqlite-length/

The SQLite length() function returns the number of characters of a string. If the argument is a BLOB, the length() function returns the number of bytes.

We probably should make this clearer in the wording in the UI :-D
