Oracle Apps r10.7 and r11.0 had some SQL statements from PRO*C batch
programs that are over 20K in length.  Utterly astounding!

Since VARCHAR2 variables can be up to 32767 in PL/SQL, I've written PL/SQL
packages that used string variables of that length for automating EXPLAIN
PLAN execution and storing the output for analysis, and ran this package in
OraApps environments for months...
