Strings and replication

I have just done some testing in UT2004 (ie Unreal Engine 2.5) concerning Strings and replication. My test included a server to client replicated string variable I filled on the server in PostBeginPlay and replicated (reliably) if bNetInitial. I output its length client-side in PostNetBeginPlay and each Tick.

Strings longer than 390 characters took one Tick before they were replicated completely, ie at PostNetBeginPlay, the client-side length was still zero, in the first Tick it had the correct length.

Strings longer than 496 characters did not get replicated at all, not even truncated. The client-side length remained zero.

If anybody can confirm or clarify this, this might be useful information in the String section.
