Maybe, but the entire statement length also has a limit of 8K! That's where I think it gets a little ridiculous to try and use in-line sql to
send/retrieve data of these sizes.
The large object interface is perfect for this. I am going to try to add LongVarChar/Large Object support to the driver soon. We will need two different
data types now -- one for binary (already have "lo") and one for char (maybe "lo_char").
