Comment (by aaugustin):
I can't comment on performance, but I've always found choosing the length
of `CharField`s incredibly annoying.
"How long can this be? 100 chars? Fields are always too short, et's make
it 200. Oh why not 255, everyone does that..."
I'm in favor of removing the requirement to define `max_length` on
`CharField`s, and making them unlimited by default — assuming this isn't a
''Gun Aimed At Feet''.
