>> Currently, ModifiedUtf.utfLen returns a signed int. For very large strings, this may overflow and produce negative values, leading to incorrect behavior in code that relies on the UTF length. This patch changes the return type to long, which fully resolves the issue and allows safe handling of giant strings.

Suggestion:
long total = ModifiedUtf.utfLen(chunk.repeat(iterations), 0);
