character limit on text boxes?

Is there a character limit for input into freeform textboxes in dashboards? I've entered tens of thousands of characters without apparent truncation, but I'm not sure how it's implemented on the back end, and I figure the limit's not infinite.

You could use javascript like the following in your application.js:

$("input").attr("maxlength", 4)

This doesn't answer my question. I don't want to limit the amount of characters users input--I want to know how many characters the text box supports.
