Varchar Indexing
Is there a size limit on indexable varying character fields?
I need a semi-large varchar field (say 2048 characters) but really need
the speed of an index in searching, I'm left wondering at what point
indexing varchar fields becomes useless (if it ever does)..
Thanks!

1/3rd page, about 2700 bytes, if you're using btree index.
Presently, TOAST does not help any :-(

and for the "text" data type?
other question:
is it possible to store 0-bytes in a text field?
