Of course, I realize, that "unlimited" is just theory. Perhaps I should
write: "with no formal limit set" rather.
So, I was just wondering, whether (or not) there is a noticeable difference
when operating on - let's say - VARCHAR(255), rather than on just TEXT.
Never made such measurements by myself.
