Query length limit?

Hi there.

Is there a SPL query length limit on a dashboard panel? And if so - is it documented anywhere?

I'm not talking about limit on returned rows as many people discussed before. I'm talking about the length limit for a search associated with a panel.

The case looks like this - the customer has a dashboard with some panels. The panels seem to work but:

1) If you click on "open in search" you get 400 Bad request

2) If you try to edit the dashboard and get into the panel details, the query is truncated

It looks as if there was some limit imposed at some time (after some upgrade?) which doesn't let us edit the queries anymore.

And yes, the query is horribly ugly and calls for optimization but that's another story and we'll get to it.
