How can I find the limits (if any) on things such as the maximum number of tables, views, indices, columns-per-table, size of database, etc.?

(At the moment I'm particularly interested any limits that my exist on the numbers of tables and views that may exist in any one database.)

http://www.postgresql.org/about/ has some of the theoretical limits.

In real use you're unlikely to hit any limits, theoretical or practical, but if you start to use a silly number of tables and so on you're likely to hit performance issues eventually. I'm not sure where that threshold would be, but it's higher than "thousands".
